Final answer:

Multiplying £374 by the exchange rate of 5.2956 gives 1980.3624 Turkish Lira, which, rounded to the nearest lira, is 1980 lira. The given options were incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks how many Turkish Lira Seraph will receive for £374 given the exchange rate is £1 = 5.2956 Turkish Lira. To find the total number of Lira, multiply the amount in pounds by the exchange rate:

£374 × 5.2956 = 1980.3624 Turkish Lira.

Since the question asks for the nearest lira, you would round 1980.3624 to the nearest whole number, which is 1980 lira. This means none of the provided options (a. 1,976 lira, b. 1,975 lira, c. 1,977 lira, d. 1,974 lira) are correct.
