First, we need to calculate the sales tax on the car. The cost of the car plus upgrades is $21,345 + $2,500 = $<<21345+2500=23845>>23,845.
Next, we calculate the sales tax amount: $23,845 x 0.07 = $<<23845*0.07=1669.15>>1,669.15.
Finally, we can calculate the total loan amount: $23,845 + $1,669.15 = $<<23845+1669.15=25514.15>>25,514.15
Rounding to the nearest whole number, the total loan amount will be $25,514. Answer: \boxed{25,514}.

how did you find 7%
The problem states that the Georgia sales tax on the car is 7%. Therefore, we know that the sales tax rate is 7%.
How do you know find 7% of your total in part A? Show your proportion and work. Explain your process.
To find 7% of a total, we need to multiply the total by 0.07.
In this case, the total cost of the car with upgrades is $23,845.
To find 7% of $23,845, we would calculate: $23,845 x 0.07 = $1,669.15.
So, the sales tax on the car is $1,669.15.
Apologies for not showing the proportion and work explicitly in the previous response.
