Question

Lisa agrees to pay $157.28 per month for her car. How much will she pay in nine months?

Answer 1

Answer: Lisa will pay $1415.52
---
Since Lisa is paying $157.28 per month, that means you add $157.28 for every month that goes by, which is the same as multiplying $157.28 by that many months!

Since you want to find out how much she pays in 9 months, multiply $157.28 by 9:
$\ 157.28 \times 9= \ 1415.52$

Answer 2

$157.28 x 9 months.
The answer is $1,415.52
