Identify the willingness to pay for each movie by both roommates from the table provided. For Saw III, Ricky is willing to pay \$5 and Martin is willing to pay \$3.
Calculate the total willingness to pay for the third movie by adding the amounts both roommates are willing to pay: \(5 (Ricky) + \)3 (Martin).
The total willingness to pay for the third movie represents the total marginal benefit from renting the third movie.
Compare the calculated total marginal benefit with the options provided in the problem to determine which one matches.
Understand that the marginal benefit is the additional benefit received from consuming one more unit of a good or service, in this case, the third movie.
