Yesterday you borrowed $60 from your brother. Every day that you don't pay it back, you owe $2.00 more. So today, day one, you owe him $62.00, on day two you will owe him $64.00, on day three you will owe him $66.00, etc. If you still haven't paid him back, how much will you owe him on day 25?

Answer:

110 dollars.

Explanation:

Since every day you owe him 2 dollars more, and its been 25 days, 25 x 2 is 50.

You originally owed him 60, and 50 dollars in late fees, so 60 + 50 = 110.

You owe him 110 dollars.
