Emma, this is the solution to the problem Benjamin has:

Step 1: Let's calculate the total cost of buying the car.

8,000 (Down payment)

313.08 (Monthly payment) * 60 months

115.00 (Monthly Insurance)

105.00 (Monthtly maintenance)

8,000 + 313.08 * 60 + 115 * 60 + 105 * 60

8,000 + 18,784.80 + 6,900 + 6,300

Total Cost = 39,984.80

Step 2: Let's calculate the total cost of leasing the car.
