Question

Karen brought a dishwasher from a rental center for $650. She makes 16 monthly payments of $63.75 with her credit card. The rental center charges $1.50 for every payment made with a credit card. What is the total cost of the dishwasher?

Answer 1

$1044

Explanation:

Given that Karen makes monthly payments on her credit card of $63.75 and the rental center charges $1.50 for every credit card payment, her total payment each month is: $63.75 + $1.50 = $65.25.

Since Karen made these payments for 16 months, we can take the monthly payment multiplied by 16:

$65.25 x 16 = $1044 for the total cost of the dishwasher
