Answer 1

To determine which bowling alleys Isaiah can afford based on his $25 budget, we need to calculate the total cost for the various games he could play at each alley based on their prices.

1. Alley Cats:
   Price per game = $3.97
   For 6 games:
   Total cost = 6 * $3.97 = $23.82 (within budget)

2. Pin Can:
   Price per game = $4.22
   For 5 games:
   Total cost = 5 * $4.22 = $21.10 (within budget)

3. Bowl n Skate:
   Price per game = $5.32
   For 6 games:
   Total cost = 6 * $5.32 = $31.92 (exceeds budget)

4. Bowlera:
   Price per game = $5.49
   For 7 games:
   Total cost = 7 * $5.49 = $38.43 (exceeds budget)

Based on the calculations, Isaiah can afford:

• 6 games at Alley Cats
• 5 games at Pin Can

So, the two options that apply are:

1. 6 games at Alley Cat
2. 5 games at Pin Can
