Bucky earns money each weekend catching and selling fish. He wants to save up for a new video game, which costs $60. Last weekend he earned $35. He can earn $5 from trout and $4 from blue-gill. He caught five fish this Sunday. If 60% were trout, and the rest were blue-gill, how much more does he need to save before he can buy the game? Give me reasons, before answering the question

He is $25 short for the game because 60 - 35 = 25. He caught 3 trout because 5 x .6 = 3. He caught 2 blue - gill because 5 - 3 = 2. He earned $15 from the trout because 3 x 5 = 15. He earned $8 from the blue - gill because 2 x 4 = 8. He earned $23 total because 15 + 8 = 23. He is $2 short because 25 - 23 = 2. So the final answer is 2.
