Plato borrows $67.24 at 7 3/4 % interest per year. How much interest does he pay the first year? |
 |
Hint 1 focuses on the two keys steps to solving the problem. First we change the percent to a decimal by dividing by 100. Then we multiply the answer by the amount borrowed. |
 |
Hint 2 illustrates in depth the first step of the problem. We take the percent as a mixed number and convert it to an improper fraction. Then we convert the improper fraction to a decimal. |
 |
Hint 3 addresses the next step of the problem by taking the decimal answer and multiplying it by the original amount borrowed. |
 |
Hint 4 shows us in pictures the final answer. |
 |
Like always, we can view the summary and review the step-by-step process to get the final answer. |
 |
We can repeat the problem with a new set of numbers to review again in pictures the concepts we just learned. |
 |
Like always, the hints will change to reflect the new numbers in the problem. |
 |
Hint 2 shows different pictures to correspond with the new numbers. |
 |
Hint 3 has different pictures to correspond to the new numbers |
 |
Finally there is a different answer with new pictures. |
 |
Again, we see the solution steps in one place. |
