Buying Large Appliances on Credit #13<br />
Division, multiplication, addition<br />
Major kitchen appliances are expensive. Some stores let customers buy appliances on<br />
credit with zero interest. This way, people can pay for their appliance over many<br />
months.<br />
Example: Gary paid $1200 for this cooking stove. He paid for it in 24 monthly<br />
payments.<br />
Problem: How much did he pay each month?<br />
Solution: Divide the number of months into the total cost. $1200 ÷ 24 = $50<br />
Gary paid $50 per month.<br />
Directions: Find out the monthly payments for each appliance below.<br />
1. Dan bought a fridge for $1350. He<br />
