Answer 2

Answer:

The answers are:

345 dollars

34500 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the answers, we have to know about the percentage notation. For any "x" value that is expressed as x%, it is the same that:

x%=$\frac{x}{100}$

So, first we determine the value in dollars and then we determine the value in cents, where:

1 dollar=100 cents

In dollars $:

=5.75%*$6000

=$\frac{5.75}{100}$*$6000

=$345.00

In cents c:

=5.75%*6000*100

=$\frac{5.75}{100}$*6000*100

=34500.00 cents
