    His term is 18 periods, at a period interest rate of 12/18
200*18=LAMT(1+.12/18)^18=LAMT*1.12704794
LAMT=3600 / 1.12704794 = 3194.18533
    
200*18=LAMT(1+.12/18)^18=LAMT*1.12704794
LAMT=3600 / 1.12704794 = 3194.18533

    The above is interest compounded monthly. Here it is compounded annually.
200*18=LAMT(1+.12)^1.5=LAMT*1.185
lamt= 3600/1.185=3037.21
    
200*18=LAMT(1+.12)^1.5=LAMT*1.185
lamt= 3600/1.185=3037.21

    You wrote, "There is a choice to click no choice correct too."
So choose "no choice" when the numbers don't match.
