    Kyle will have more time to play video games

    Solution:

    From given question,

    Kyle's parents told him that for every 5 hours of homework or reading he completes, he will be able to play 3 hours of video games.

    5 hours of homework = 3 hours of video games

    Victor's parents told their son that he can play 30 minutes for every hour of homework or reading time he completed.

    1 hour of homework = 30 minutes of playtime

    Suppose if victor spends 5 hours doing homework or reading, then he could play,

    5 hours of victor homework = 30 minutes x 5 = 150 minutes of play

    That is,

    150 minutes = 120 + 30 = 2 hours 30 minutes

    This 2 hours 30 minutes playtime of victor is less than kyle playtime (which is 3 hours)

    So Kyle gets more play time
