Answer:
$147,848.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Fixed rate =7.35%
Mortgage Loan= $685,000
Selling price=$782,000
Property tax paid= $14,578.15
Therefore,
Prorated Amount Owed= Outstanding balance on the house + Interest paid on the loan for the year
Prorated Amount Owed=(782500-685000)+7.35% of 685000
=97500+50347.5
=$147,847.5
3x9=27
21/3 = 7
so
7+27x9+5
27x9=243
243+7+5
answer is 255
