Answer:

  $70

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount Elijah has remaining is ...

  $300 -(70 +2×33 +80 +2×7) = $300 -(70 +80 +2(33 +7)) = $300 -230 = $70

To the nearest dollar, Elijah has $70 left.

_____

Each amount is within a penny of the nearest dollar, so we can simply use the nearest dollar amounts for the prices. In order for the answer to be different, Elijah would have to purchase 50 or more items with this pricing (something.99).
