Give the step-by-step reasoning process and then the final answer. If eight movie tickets cost 2 times as much as one football game ticket, and each movie ticket is sold at $30, calculate the total amount of money Chandler will pay if he buys eight movie tickets and five football game tickets.
If each movie ticket is sold at $30, the cost of buying eight movie tickets is 8 * $30 = $240. Since eight movie tickets cost 2 times as much as one football game ticket, the cost of buying one football game ticket is $240 / 2 = $120. Buying five football game tickets will cost 5 * $120 = $600. The total cost of buying eight movie tickets and five football game tickets is $600 + $240 = $840.
The final answer: 840.
