The simile in the passage is in the sentence “He strained his eyes in the direction from which the reports had come, but it was like trying to see through a blanket.”

The correct answer is that it was the same amount the government paid. This is a directly stated, explicit, answer from the text. The text says "The small group of Sioux demonstrators offered to pay the US government $9.40 for the island, or 47 cents per acre- the same amount the government was paying was paying to use tribal lands." This tells us that they thought that it was only fair that since the government wasn't paying them much, that they believed they deserved the same courtesy.
