Help a girly out plsss :(

Kenya plans to make a down payment plus monthly payments in order to buy a motorcycle. At one dealer she would pay $2,450 down and $200 each month. At another dealer, she would pay $3,150 down and $175 each month. After how many months would the total amount paid be the same for both dealers? What would that amount be?

After ___ months Kenya will have paid $___ for the bike at either dealer.

After 28 months Keyna will have paid $8050 for the bike at either dealer

If you needed to show your work:
The first dealer equation would've been $2450+200(28)=$8050
The second dealer equation would've been $3150 +175(28)=$8050

Hope that helped (:
