Calamity of Cinders has a mana cost of {5}{R}{R}, which equals 7.0 total mana (converted mana cost/mana value).

Mana cost is the amount and type of mana required to cast a spell in Magic: The Gathering.
Calamity of Cinders's mana cost of {5}{R}{R} means you need to pay that much mana from your lands or other sources.
Colored symbols (W=White, U=Blue, B=Black, R=Red, G=Green) must be paid with that specific color, while numbers can be paid with any color.
Converted mana cost (now officially called "mana value") is the total amount of mana in a card's mana cost, regardless of color.
