I agree with Damon.
Part of your whole equation is 2588. A down payment is subtracting from 2588. This is:
"2588 - 188 = 2400
This is the amount after she pays the down payment.
This amount is then divided by 24. This is:
"2400 / 24 = 100 per payment"
100 is the payment paid in each month. So, 100 is the correct answer.
Your way of doing it is not the correct way. The way that Damon did it is the correct way.
I hope this helps you understand! :)
