Answer:

$226.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the previous cost is

$216 per month

she expects an increase of 5% of the previous cost

therefore 5% of $216 is given as

=(5/100)*216

=0.05*216=10.8

Therefore she should be expected to pay extra $10.8 and the previous amount

hence the expected utilities each month is

=10.8+216=

=$226.8

Answer:

226.80 dollars
