Answer 2

Answer:

$196

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to know how many total there are for each. In total, there are 13 books and 8 magazines. We also need to know how much all of these cost. So, you multiply 13 by 12 to find the total cost of the books. 13 books times 12 dollars each is $156. Now, we do the same for the magazines. 8 magazines times 5 dollars each is $40. To find how much she spent in all, you have to add the two numbers.

$156 plus $40 is $196.
