(Round to the nearest dollar.)

Answer 1

Answer:

The final price of the textbook rounded to the nearest dollar is $167

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to find out what 13.5% of $147 equals.

13.5% = 0.135

0.135 x $147 = $19.845

$147 + 19.845 = 166.845

Round to the nearest dollar to get $167
