A Correct answer
Explanation

Calculate 9% of 486 = 0.09 x 486 = 43.74. Then calculate 5.5% of 124 = 0.055 x 124 = 6.82. Multiply these results: 43.74 x 6.82 = 298.3, which rounds to approximately 300. The answer A (300) is correct as it asks for the approximate value. The calculation tests your ability to compute percentages and multiply decimal numbers.
