Answer:

(amounts could be:)

Katia: $3.50

Mateo: $1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a quarter = $0.25, 4 quarters = $1.00

We know that they both have 38 quarters ($9.50)

after an hour of playing games in the arcade, Katia has $1.75 more than Mateo

lets say that Katia has (random amount)$3.50(14 quarters) and Mateo has $1.75 less than that.

$3.50 - $1.75 = $1.75

Katia has $3.50 and Mateo has $1.75.
