Answer:

$55,180

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the total cost of the house is

T = 275,900$

The down payment for the house corresponds to 20% of the value of the house; 20% can be rewritten as


20\% = (20)/(100)

So, 20% of the value of the house is


(20)/(100)C

Therefore, substituting C, we find


(20)/(100)\cdot 275,900 =\$55,180
