To find the total cost of the snack purchase, we need to add the individual costs of each item:

  • Cost of Snickers bar: \( \frac{3}{4} \) dollar = $0.75
  • Cost of bag of chips: $1.25
  • Cost of hot dog: $2.23

Now let's add them together:

\[ 0.75 + 1.25 + 2.23 \]

Adding these values step by step:

  1. \( 0.75 + 1.25 = 2.00 \)
  2. \( 2.00 + 2.23 = 4.23 \)

Therefore, the total cost of your snack purchase is $4.23.

The correct answer is: $4.23.
