Answer:

Video Game A: $27

Video Game B: $12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I divide the total in approximately half ($20 and $19). Since the difference between these two numbers is already $1, I only have to make the difference $14. I do this by dividing $14 in half ($7 and $7) and subtracting $7 from $19 and adding $7 to $20. So, video game A costs $27 and video game B costs $12. Also, to check the answer: $27 is $15 more than $12 and $27 + $12 is $39.
