> 少なくとも十ドルはすると思います。

I didn't get why it is here. Could I rewrite the sentence without する?

What does する mean in this sentence?
> 「(amount of money) + する」

means:

> "~~ costs (amount of money)"

That is probably the most common way of describing what a thing costs.

> "I think it would cost at least 10 dollars."

You **_could_** say just about the same thing without using 「する」, but **it
will not sound nearly as natural**. For instance, you could say:

「少なくとも１０ドルだと思います。」

「少なくとも１０ドルは取{と}られると思います。」

I would be shocked if they did not teach 「(amount of money) + する」 in Japanese-
as-a-foreign-language, seriously. It is an expression we use on a daily basis.
