they spent 40 dollars on the softwares
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so 115-40=75
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
75 is how much they have left
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so 75 divided by 5 months of game play

What part is wrong?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You need to add the parts where you added the softwares together and the part when you added the months of gameplay together
