Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rounding to the nearest dollar means we want to look at the digit in the ones place, which is 5. Since 5 is greater than or equal to 5, we need to round up. Therefore, $28.15 rounds up to $29. Choice (C) is the only option that matches. When rounding to the nearest dollar, we look at the digit in the ones place. Since this digit is 5 or higher, we round up to the next dollar, making the rounded value $28.
