In arithmetic and number theory, the least common multiple, lowest common multiple, or smallest common multiple of two integers a and b, usually denoted by LCM(a, b), is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both a and b. SOOO, no there can be a lower number then both multiplied by each other.

The repayment schedule is for a $1,300 loan at 7.5% for 6 months. What is the amount for interest at payment 5?

Answer: The answer is $2.77.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that we have to pay the loan of $1300 at interest rate of 7.5% in 6 months. According to the table,

Amount for interest in payment 1 = $8.13,

Amount of interest in payment 2 = $6.79

and

Amount of interest in payment 3 = $5.45.

We can see here that the difference in the amounts to be paid in consecutive months will be same, i.e., the payments will form an arithmetic progression (A.P.).

The common difference = 8.13-6.79=6.79-5.45=1.34.

Therefore, amount of interest in payment 4 = $(5.45-1.34) = $4.11

and amount of interest in payment 5 = $(4.11-1.34) = $2.77.

Please see the attached modified table.

Thus, the answer is $2.77.
