Teaching the Importance of Math to Students

The deficiency is $1080.00
At 10% factor multiply by 1.11111
rounds to $1200 added to both cars
$21,800+$1200=$23000*.1=$2300
$600+$500+$1200=$2300
22% flat of the remainder added in and divided by 48 months...
$23,000-$2300=$20,700*1.22=$25,524/48=$526
$526 rounded to nearest dollar
