5 DVDs

Explanation:

#$4.95# monthly
#$11.95# per DVD

Total spent for the month #=$64.70#

First find the total spent on the DVDs by subtracting the monthly charge from the total:

#$64.70-$4.95=$59.75#

Then divide this value by the price per DVD:

#($59.75)/($11.95)= 5#

Therefore, the customer purchased 5 DVDs.
