Answer:

1755.98

Explanation:

1755.97809915

1 cent is 1 hundredth of a dollar, so to round to the nearest cent means to round to the nearest hundredth.

The 7 in boldface is the hundredths place.

Drop all digits to the right of the 7.

1755.97

dropped digits: 809915

Look at the leftmost digit that was dropped (in boldface). If it is from 0 to 4, you are done, and the answer is 1755.97. If the leftmost digit that was dropped is from 5 to 9, the hundredths digit goes up by 1. Here, the first digit that was dropped is an 8, so the 7 in the hundredth place goes up 1 to 8.

Answer: 1755.98
