Step-by-step explanation:

the info about renting skis is only there to confuse us and has no impact on the solution.

how many days ?

we find the answer by seeing how often the price of a daily pass fits into the season pass :

350 / 63 = 5.55555555...

so, we see, 5 daily passes are still cheaper than the season pass.

but when buying 6 daily passes, then they are more eclectic than the season pass.

so, he has to ski for at least 6 days to make the season pass less expensive than daily passes.
