To determine if Ishaan can cover the cost of the new TV, we need to calculate the total amount he has available across his payment methods:

  1. Cash: $100
  2. Debit card: $500
  3. Credit card: $300 limit

Total amount available = $100 (cash) + $500 (debit card) + $300 (credit card) = $900

The cost of the TV is $999.

Since $900 is less than $999, none of the payment methods together can cover the cost of the new TV.

Correct response: None of the payment methods is enough to cover the cost of the new TV.
