Final answer:

The totals for Register 4's cash and checks match the provided figures. However, the credit card total calculated does not match the provided total. Thus, the totals for Register 4 do not match, with a discrepancy found in the credit card total.

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer if the totals match for Register 4, we need to calculate the cash, check, and credit card totals and compare them to the provided totals.

Lets add up the cash components:

  • 1 hundred dollar bill = $100
  • 2 fifty dollar bills = $100
  • 75 twenty dollar bills = $1,500
  • 26 ten dollar bills = $260
  • 16 five dollar bills = $80
  • 54 one dollar bills = $54
  • 12 quarters = $3
  • 85 dimes = $8.50
  • 20 nickels = $1
  • 52 pennies = $0.52

Cash total = $100 + $100 + $1,500 + $260 + $80 + $54 + $3 + $8.50 + $1 + $0.52 = $2,107.02

Let's verify the check totals:

  • $23.79 + $15.23 + $167.50 + $29.75 = $236.27

And the credit card totals:

  • $195.16 + $25.08 + $65.18 + $95.23 = $380.65

After adding up all the components, we can see that the cash total matches the provided figure of $2,107.02, and the check total matches the provided total of $236.27. However, the provided credit card total is $556.87, which does not match our calculated total of $380.65. Therefore, there is a discrepancy in the credit card total, and the answer is No, the totals do not match for Register 4.
