Answer: $735.34

Explanation:

Current year tax = $1,100

Using the 365-days method of prorating,

Daily tax for the current year = $1,100 ÷ 365 = $3.0137

Since closing date of the sale transaction is September 1 of the current year, Marianne's share of the real estate tax will be from January 1st - August 31st of the present year, which equals 244 days

Therefore, Marianne's share of the real estate tax = $3.0137 × 244 = $735.34
