To calculate the amount of money Mario has left to spend for the rest of the week, we'll follow these steps:

Step 1: Find the amount Mario spent on Tuesday.
Since he spent 25% of his weekly allowance, we can calculate the amount as:
Amount spent = 25% of $10.00
= 0.25 * $10.00
= $2.50

Step 2: Find the amount Mario spent on Wednesday.
Since he spent 15% of his weekly allowance, we can calculate the amount as:
Amount spent = 15% of $10.00
= 0.15 * $10.00
= $1.50

Step 3: Find the amount Mario spent on Thursday.
Since he spent 10% more than the previous day, we can find the new percentage by adding 10% to Wednesday's percentage:
New percentage = 15% + 10%
= 0.15 + 0.10
= 0.25

Now we can calculate the amount Mario spent on Thursday:
Amount spent = 25% of $10.00
= 0.25 * $10.00
= $2.50

Step 4: Calculate the total amount Mario spent so far by summing up the amounts spent on each day:
Total amount spent = Amount spent on Tuesday + Amount spent on Wednesday + Amount spent on Thursday
= $2.50 + $1.50 + $2.50
= $6.50

Step 5: Calculate the amount of money Mario has left to spend for the rest of the week:
Amount left to spend = Weekly allowance - Total amount spent
= $10.00 - $6.50
= $3.50

Therefore, Mario has $3.50 left to spend for the rest of the week.
