Answer:

  • Mike: $219
  • Jake: $280
  • Aaron: $235

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to do this rounding is to add $0.50, then drop the decimal portion of the sum.

  $219.49 +0.50 = $219.99 ⇒ $219 . . . Mike's price

  $279.97 +0.50 = $280.47 ⇒ $280 . . . Jake's price

  $234.95 +0.50 = $235.45 ⇒ $235 . . . Aaron's price
