Answer:

85.2

Step-by-step explanation:

we can represent this in an equation where the initial value is going to be and to this we will subtract 2.6% of it

x - x * 2.6/100 = 83

x - 0.026x = 83

0.974x = 83

x = 83 / 0.974

x = 85.2156

we round to the nearest tenth and finally, we get that the result is 85.2

Hey there :)

We know the formula for simple interest is 
I = prt
{ The picture includes what each stands for }

Lehena:
Initial amount = $100
Interest rate = 2.5% = \frac{2.5}{100} = 0.025
Time = 3 years
I = ( 100 )( 0.025 )( 3 )
  = 7.5$

Total = $100 + $7.5 = $107.5

Marty:
Initial amount = $100
Interest rate = 2% = \frac{2}{100} = 0.02
Time = 3 years
I = ( 100 )( 0.02 )( 3 ) 
  = $6

Total = $100 + $6 = $106

How much more than Marty did Lehena receive?
= Total Amount of Lehena - Total Amount of Marty
= 107.5 - 106
= $1.5

Your answer will be option B) $1.50
