Answer 1

To solve the problem, we'll just have to calculate the 4.5% of $19,607

To do so, we use that 4.5% as a fraction is

$\frac{4.5}{100}$

We then multiply that fraction by the original price, to get the value of such 4.5%

$19607\times\frac{4.5}{100}\rightarrow882.32$

Therefore, the price will go up by $882.32
