Answer:He needs to play more than 14 or more games for him to win the prize he wants.

Explanation:

You could use the equation 35x + 284=785 where x represents the number of games he need to place in order to have enough tickets to win the prize he wants.

35x + 284 = 785

-284 -284

35x = 501

x= 14.314
