It would cost 1.99. to wrap each gift.

For this exercise you need to analize the information provided.

You can observe in the picture attached that the cost of a package of wrapping paper is $3.76 and each bow costs $1.05.

Since Inez bought 1 package of wrapping paper and 4 bows, you get that the total amount of money she spent was:

Total = 3.76 + 4 (1.05)

Total = 7.96

According to the data given in the exercise, Inez wrapped 4 identical gifts. So, let be "x" the cost for wrapping each gift.

This is:

x = 7.96/4

x= 1.99.

Complete question:
