Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
When you must do the same tedious calculation several times with different numbers, it is convenient to let a spreadsheet program do it for you. Here, the spreadsheet function PMT( ) computes the payment amount for the given interest rate, number of payments, and loan amount.
The loan amount is 90% of the purchase price.
The total interest over the life of the loan is the sum of the payments less the original loan amount.
The total monthly payment is the sum of the loan payment and the monthly escrow amount, which is 1/12 of the annual escrow amount.
_____
Here, we computed the total of payments using the unrounded "exact" value of each payment. We take this to be a better approximation of the total amount repaid, since the last payment always has an adjustment for any over- or under-payment due to rounding.

Answer:
Porter is inches taller than Henry.
Porter is times taller than henry.
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference in height can be found using subtraction.
Since Porter is taller than Henry, we'll subtract away Henry's height from Porter's height. This will leave us with only the difference between the heights.
n = Porter's height
m = Henry's height
Difference in height is thus:
Answer: Porter is inches taller than Henry.
To find out how many times taller Porter is than Henry, we can use division.
An example: if Porter was 200cm, and Henry was 100cm, Porter is obviously 2 times as tall.
If we divide Porter's height by Henry's height...
..we'll get 2. This is because Henry's height "fits in twice" in Porter's height. 100 fits twice in 200.
Using our values, n and m, we'll divide n by m.
Answer: Porter is times taller than henry.
