To find out how much a reader saves by subscribing to the digital magazine for 6 months, we first need to calculate the total cost of buying each issue at the supermarket for 6 months.
The cost of each issue is $6.95. If the reader is purchasing one issue per month for 6 months, then the total cost is:
\[ 6.95 \times 6 = 41.70 \]
Now, we compare this cost to the cost of the digital subscription, which is $30.99.
Next, we calculate the savings:
\[ \text{Savings} = \text{Cost of supermarket issues} - \text{Cost of digital subscription} \] \[ \text{Savings} = 41.70 - 30.99 = 10.71 \]
Therefore, the reader saves $10.71 by subscribing to the digital magazine for 6 months.
The correct response is:
10.71
