1164 cents or 11.64$

Step-by-step explanation:

Report total Pages = RP = 97

Need Printed Copies = PC = 16

Total pages need to print = RP * PC = 97 * 16 = 1552 pages

Now cost for 500 pages printed = 3.75$

Convert dollar to cents (1 dollar = 100 cents)

3.75$ = 375 cents

cost for one page print = (375/500) = 0.75 cents

Now total cost for 1552 pages print = 1552 * 0.75 cents = 1164 cents or 11.64 $
