I do believe it’s 250$
**The first choice:**
Principal: 5,000$
Rate(%): 5
Time(year): 3 years
A: 5,750$
**Second choice**
Principal: 5,000$
Rate(%): 4%
Time(year): 5 years
A: 6,000$
6,000-5,750=250$
Hope this helps!

When we have relationships between two variables and their ratios are equivalent, we call this as proportional relationship. A scale drawing is a model that has been reduced or enlarged from its original size. Suppose you have a horse that measures 1,5m high by 2m long and want to draw a reduced model by a scale factor of 1:10, then your drawing will measure:

So the components are:
- Measurements of the original object
- Measurements of the drawing
- Scale factor
Length of diagonal=4.93+10.2=15.13 m
Length of the other diagonal=8.5+8.5=17 m
Area=1/2 x diagonal1 x diagonal2
=1/2 x 15.13 x 17
=128.61 cm^2
100% = 1.0
2.5% = 0.025
So now we know the decimal that corresponds to 2.5%, so all we have to do is multiply the price of the boat by this value in order to find the commission earned:
18 500 x 0.025 = $462.50
