Let the total money be x

 Hunter spent (2/3)x of him money on video game.

So, Remaining money = 1 - (2/3)x

                                        = (1/3)x

 

Half of remaining = (1/6)x

According to question half of remaining money is equal to $10, so

(1/6)x = $10

Cross-multiplying, we get

x = $60

Thus, total money is  $60
