Please help me with this question

Answer: $11.71
Step-by-step explanation: she bought 5 spirals so that's $1.35 X 5
Then she bought 12 pens that cost $1.24 for 3 pens to find that you divide 12 by 3 to get 4.
So 4 sets of 3 pens.
Then you can set up your equation like this: 5(1.35)+4(1.24)=
You then distribute, so: 6.75+4.96
To then get 11.71
