Amy used her first 2 tokens at Glimmer Arcade to play a game of Roll-and-Score. Then she
played her favorite game, Balloon Bouncer, over and over until she ran out of tokens. Balloon
Bouncer costs 3 tokens per game, and Amy started with a bucket of 35 game tokens.
Which equation can Amy use to find how many games of Balloon Bouncer, g, she played?
Let g be the number of games of Balloon Bouncer Amy played.
Since each game of Balloon Bouncer costs 3 tokens and Amy started with 35 tokens, she used 2 tokens for Roll-and-Score, meaning she had 35 - 2 = 33 tokens left.
Amy played g games of Balloon Bouncer, so she used 3g tokens.
Thus, the equation is 3g = 33.
How many games of Balloon Bouncer did Amy play?
games
To find the number of games of Balloon Bouncer that Amy played, we need to solve the equation 3g = 33.
Dividing both sides of the equation by 3, we get g = 33/3.
Evaluating this expression, we find that g = 11.
Therefore, Amy played 11 games of Balloon Bouncer.
