Answer:

$4(12)

$48

Explanation:

The problem is telling you fees are $4 per month. It is asking the amount of fees for a year.

You find the yearly amount by multiplying the monthly amount by the number of months in a year:

(fees for year) = (fee for month)×(number of months in a year)

All it is asking for is the product expression:

$4 × 12

__

And for the product:

$48
