$20 is required to play ten games with the entry fee and 20 games can be played with $35.

Explanation:

Entry fee =$5

Cost to play 1 game =$1.5

The cost of playing 10 games = $1.5 * 10 =$15

The total cost to play 10 games =$(15+5) =$20

Total money =$35

Total money after entering =$(35-5) =$30

The number of game that can be played by using the remaining money =($30)/($1.5) =20
