Answer:

Each magazine would cost 5 dollars.

Explanation:

If he originally started with $25 then spent $5 he would then have $20 dollars left.

If he then bought 4 magazines using the last of his $20 (ignoring sales tax) you would have to divide $20 by 4 to get a total of $5 dollars for each magazine.

I hope this helps :D
