Let Sunday 's game generate $ x
Fridays's game generates x - 603.50
The two games generate 3268.50
x + (x-603.50) = 3268.50
2x - 603.5= 368.50
2x = 6238.50 - 603.50
2x = 5635
x= 5636/2
x = 2816
Sunday $ 2816

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The solution in the post by @mananth contains several arithmetic errors that lead to wrong answer.
So, I came to bring a correct accurate solution.
Let Sunday's game generate $ x
Friday's game generates x - 603.50 dollars.
The two games generate 3268.50
x + (x-603.50) = 3268.50
2x - 603.5= 3268.50
2x = 3268.50 + 603.50
2x = 3872
x = 3872/2
x = 1936
ANSWER. Sunday's game generated $1936. Friday's game generated $1936 - $603.50 = $1332.50.
