Jennifer borrowed $3,584 from her parents to use as a down payment on a piece of land she purchased. If she pays them $256 each month, how long will it take Jennifer to pay back the loan? (Jennifer’s parents aren’t charging her any interest.)

The answer is 14

Just divide 3,584 by 256

3584 ÷ 256 = 14

I hoped I helped
