    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
