If the ring tone is less than $4.00,$4.00, Janice can buy that as well as the picture and the game.

Explanation:

Janice has $8.00$8.00

She buys a picture for $1.95$1.95

Now Janice has: $8.00 - $1.95 = $6.05$8.00$1.95=$6.05

Then she buys a game for $2.05$2.05

Now Janice has: $6.05 - $2.05 = $4.00$6.05$2.05=$4.00

So if the ring tone is less than $4.00,$4.00, Janice can but that, too.

Check: 8.00 = $4.00 + $2.05 + $1.95 = $8.008.00=$4.00+$2.05+$1.95=$8.00

OK, where's that ring tone?
