    • 63

    • 111

    Correct Answer
    A. 48
    Explanation
    The number of video games the store has left at the end of the week can be found by subtracting the total number of games sold from the total number of games received. The total number of games received is 39 + 31 + 41 = 111. The total number of games sold is 11 + 16 + 14 + 11 = 52. Therefore, the number of games left at the end of the week is 111 - 52 = 59.
