Answer:

Thursday's game generated $2327.5

Saturday's game generated $2480

explanation:

Let Saturday's games generates x

Then Thursday's game will generate [ x - $152.50 ]

Saturday's + Thursday's = total earnings

  x    +    x - $152.50   =     $4807.50

  2x   =    $4807.50 +  $152.50

  2x   =   $4960

   x    =  $(4960)/2

   x    =   $2480

According to statement, Saturday's games earned $2480

Thursdays game earned = $2480 - $152.50 = $2327.5
