Your final $8.35

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to approach this would be to create an equation. You can do this either way by adding it up:

$2.99+$2.99+$0.79+$0.79+$0.79=$8.35

OR

You can set up an equation based on the question. Assuming are person is about to buy TWO magazines at the price of $2.99, We can Write it as:

2($2.99)

Then, We will be buying three packs of gum at $0.79. We can combine the equation to look like:

2($2.99)+3($0.79)= $8.35
