To fill in the blanks, let's break down the calculations:
-
You purchased a used car for $3,200 and made equal payments over a 24-month period.
-
The monthly payment can be calculated by dividing the total cost by the number of months: \[ \frac{3,200}{24} = 133.33 , \text{(approximately)} \]
So it seems like the rounded value would be: \[ R = 133 \]
-
In the calculations:
- $3,200 divided by 24 equals $133.33, so the first blank would be R = 133.
-
Next, resolving the multiplication:
-
24 months left to pay, then reducing the balance: \[ 20 \times 100 = 2000 \] This seems to imply you've calculated a certain payment structure where you can determine how many months remain or a payment per month structure.
-
From the last prompt: \[ _ \times 200 = 4,000 \] If we arrange: \[ 4,000 \div 200 = 20 \]
Therefore, the missing value could be 20.
-
-
Finally, to determine the total monthly payment: \[ 3,200 \div 24 = 133.33 \] Therefore your answer would be approximately $133 per month.
To summarize:
- R = 133
- The second blank (after dividing) would be 20.
- Monthly payment: approximately $133.
Putting the values into the structure:
- 133 R (where R = 133)
- 20 x 100 = 2000 and so on
- Monthly payment = $133 per month.
