Question

The Clark family must pay $2,820 in property tax on their home this year. The house payment $752 per month. What is their payment each month with the tax? Assume that the tax is paid in equal monthly installments.

Answer 1

it's actually easier than it seems. if the tax is paid in equal payments every month and the total throughout a year (12 months) is $2,820, you have to find out how much they pay every month
so divide the total by the number of months
2,820/12=235
they pay $235 in taxes every month
to find out the total of the taxes and the house payment, just add the monthly tax and the monthly house payment.
235+752
and your answer is the sum

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you must find how much they pay in one month, not including tax. Since there are 12 months in a year, you have to do 2820/12 to get 235.

Next, you must add the quotient to 752, which they pay in one month. 235+752=987. They pay $987 in one month.
