Scenarios

Assume that a gaming studio had a store created at 8:00:00 on a certain day and in that store, created a table to store its data about players, rankings, game statuses, and others. This table uses pay-per-use billing. From 8:00:00 to 9:00:00, the table occupied 20 GB of storage and processed 2 million WRUs. From 9:00:00 to 10:00:00, no requests were made. From 10:00:00 to 11:00:00, the table occupied 15 GB and processed 1 million RRUs. From 11:00:00 to 12:00:00, the table processed 1 million RRUs, with the occupied storage unchanged. How much did this studio need to pay for the resources used from 8:00:00 to 12:00:00?
