Answer: It would be the fourth option, $4.84

Step-by-step explanation: To find the new price, multiply 115% to 2.25. 115% is the same as 1.15 and multiply that to $2.25. You would get 2.5875. Now that's the percent in increase so add this to the original price of the gallon of milk which was 2.25. You should get 4.8375, which would round to $4.84.
