Answer:

The new price of the bottle is $ 3.14.

Explanation:

Given,

Original price of 1-liter bottle of orange juice = $ 2.85,

Since, the new price is 110 percent of the original price.

Thus, the new price of the bottle = 110 % of the $ 2.85


=(110* 2.85)/(100)


=(313.5)/(100)


=3.135\approx 3.14

Hence, the new price of the bottle is $ 3.14.
