 Solution

Let $Y$ be the affine variety with coordinate ring $A$. Its principal opens $D(f_i)$ cover $Y$ because ${\sum }_i{g}_i{f}_i=1$. On $X_{f_i}$, the localization of global sections on a principal open identifies its coordinate ring with $A_{f_i}$, giving an isomorphismOn an overlap the two maps are induced by the same elements of $A$, or equivalently by the same identification with $A_{f_i{f}_j}$, so they agree. Glue them to $\varphi :X\to Y$. The inverses agree on the overlaps as well and glue to its inverse. At a closed point $P$, this is the map corresponding to the evaluation ring homomorphism $A\to k$, $a\mapsto a(P)$. This proves the cohomological criterion for affineness by an explicit global isomorphism.
