Answer:

The % increase in Jim's monthly payment = 19.36%

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount Jim was paying monthly on the first loan = $8.78

The amount he now pays monthly = $10.48

The increase in Jim's payment = $10.48 - $8.78

The increase in Jim's monthly payment = $1.7

The % increase in Jim's monthly payment = 1.7/8.78 * 100%

The % increase in Jim's monthly payment = 19.36%
