Explanation / Answer

Solution(19):None of these

simple interest I=ptr/100

principal amount=$260,000,

downpayment =20%=52000

Remaining amount kept as mortgage =260000-52000=208000

interest =6.5%

time =25 years=25 * 12 =300 months(since 1 year =12 months)

Balance after 1 st principal payment($3,434)=208000-3434

= $204566

Which is not there in options so none of these.

Solution20:

Downpayment=30%=0.3=0.3*139,000

= 41700

rest principal=139000-41700=

97,300
