The monthly payment for the loan = $390
- To calculate the balance of the loan at 14 months;
Find the simple interest
= P×T×R/100
= 8,500 × 1 × 6.5/100
= 55,250/100
= $552.5
If 12 months = 8,500 + 552.5
14 months = X
make X the subject of formula,
X = 14 × 9052.5/12
X= 126,735/12
X = $10,561.25

The amount paid monthly = $390
The amount to be paid for the loan with interest = 8,500 + 552.5 = $9,052.5
If 1 month = $390

Make X the subject of formula,
X = $9,052.5/$390
X= 23 months
The total amount of money paid for the car is already calculated which is through the simple interest
