Hi! I'm happy to help!
Our town is composed of 2,000 people. Of those 2,000 people, 4/5 of them are middle class. The word 'of' usually means multiplication when it is in a word problem. So, we will multiply 2,000 by 4/5. When multiplying a whole number, we just multiply it by the numerator (top) and leave the denominator. (bottom)
2,000×4
8,000
8,000/5
Fractions are just a different way of putting division, so we can change this to a division problem:
8,000÷5=
1,600
1,600 of the people are middle class.
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D

Step-by-step explanation:
Loan payments are <em>linear in the loan amount</em> for a given rate and period, so the payments for loans of $2000 and $1000 sum to the amount of payments for a loan of $3000.
The only possible savings (or cost) might come from rounding to the nearest cent. (In any event, the final payment on each loan should make up for any differences due to rounding.)
