Answer:

Twenty percent of $47.83 is equal to $14.66

If you did 20% of 47.83, that would equal 9.566. So, now you need to take the 5, which is equal to 500 cents, and turn it into 5 dollars. (One hundred cents is a dollar so 500 cents , is 5 dollars.) now it’s 9 + 5. Easy, it’s 14. Now add back the 66, and it’s 14.66 dollars. So the answer is...

14.66
