atleast 5 or more than 4 games

Explanation:

in order for the unlimited bowling to be less expensive, its cost needs to be lower than the number of games played multiplied by the charge per game

therefore if x were the number of games played

16< 3.75 * x

therefore

16/3.75 < x

therefore, 4.266bar(6) < x

therefore x must be greater than 4 games or greater than or equal to 5 games
