Answer:

$3000 is to be saved per month in order to cover the down payment

Explanation:

It is that 20% of the total cost of the house is to be given as down payment.

The total cost of house is $180,000

The amount to be paid as down payment include


(20)/(100) * 180,000\\36000

considering that he will pay down payment in next 12 months, then the total sum of money to be saved per month is


(360,00)/(12) \\3000
