Question

My house costs 275,900$

If i put 20% down on this house i would have to save ___ for a down payment.
HELP?!?!

Answer 1

$55,180

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the total cost of the house is

T = 275,900$

The down payment for the house corresponds to 20% of the value of the house; 20% can be rewritten as

`20\% = (20)/(100)`

So, 20% of the value of the house is

`(20)/(100)C`

Therefore, substituting C, we find

`(20)/(100)\cdot 275,900 =\$55,180`
