Which detail from the story "The Gift of the Magi" best supports the inference that Jim and Della are barely making it by financ

ially?

Answer:

I would say "Twenty dollars a week doesn’t go far. Expenses had been greater than she had calculated. They always are."

Explanation:

In this answer, it explicitly says " Expenses had been greater than she had calculated. They always are." which infers that by saying "they always are", would imply she never makes enough money to be financially fit.
