Svetradugi [14.3K]
<span>Normally when they tell you interest rate they say per annum meaning the percent interest rate for a year.

But in this problem they seem to say John pays 12% for a 146 day loan.

So interest = P * r / 100 = 8400 * 12/100 = $1,008.00
Maturity value = Principal + Interest = 8400 + 1008 = $9,408.00</span>

Fill the value of the expression 24 3/5 +4 ×(8 1/5-2)
Julli [10]
First off, we'll convert the mixed fractions to "improper",

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{24\frac{3}{5}}\implies \cfrac{24\cdot 5+3}{5}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{123}{5}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{mixed}{8\frac{1}{5}}\implies \cfrac{8\cdot 5+1}{5}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{41}{5}}

\bf 24\frac{3}{5}\times \left( 8\frac{1}{5}-2 \right)\implies \cfrac{123}{5}\left( \cfrac{41}{5}-2 \right)\impliedby \mathbb{PEMDAS}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{123}{5}\left( \cfrac{41-10}{5} \right)\implies \cfrac{123}{5}\left( \cfrac{31}{5} \right)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{123\cdot 31}{5\cdot 5}\implies \cfrac{3813}{25}\implies 152\frac{13}{25}
