Answer 1

The correct option is D $368,650\$

As per the question,
Maria wants to spend the number of days in galaxy $=365$
Galaxy travel company charges $=1,010\$$/day

$\therefore$ Total amount of money Maria needs to spend to travel $365$ days in galaxy $=(1,010\times 365)\$$

To calculate $1,010\times 365$, we follow our usual long multipication method as elaborated below.


In the above long multiplication method, the rectangles around $0$s denote the gaps.

$\therefore 1,010\times 365=368,650$

Hence, Maria needs to spend $368,650\$$ to travel $365$ days in galaxy, i.e., option (d.) is the correct one.
