1,500 x .07= 105

105 + 1500= 1605 dollars--> this is how much Bob owes

$1605.00....ps use a calculator enter 1500 and multiply by 0.07

the interest of 7% on $1,500 is $105.

so $1500 + $105 =$1605

$1500.00 X 7% = $105.00

$1500.00 + $105.00 = (your answer $1605.00

$1608.44 if the interest in compounded monthly.

Multiply 1,500 by .07. So you have:

1,500
x .07
________
105.00

7 times zero is zero (twice), then 7 times 5 is 35, then 7 times one is 7, carrying the 3 from the 35 into the next place is 7 +3 so that is 10. Then you put in the two decimal places.

We are not compounding interest, right?

So, now Jack owes Bob the original $1,500 that he borrowed, plus $105 in interest, which makes it $1,605.00.

Try this some more with different numbers, this is the kind of simple math that you will need to learn how to do.
