Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is $2750. Which is the difference in the amount of interest Emma would have to pay for these two loans

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest=( P× r × t)/100

60 months is converted to 5years(60/12=5)

Interest= (25000 × 5 × 5) /100

= $6250

72months is converted to 6 years(72/12=6 Years)

Interest=( P× r × t)/100

= (25000 × 6 × 6)/100

=$ 9000

The difference in the interest= $9000- $6250

= $ 2750
