Answer:

  • $2500 @ 4%
  • $2000 @ 4%
  • $2000 @ 12%

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of interest earned by each loan is computed using the formula ...

  I = Prt

where P is the principal amount, r is the annual rate, and t is the time period in years.

In the order the loans are described in the problem statement, the interest amounts are ...

  I1 = 2500·.04·6 = 600

  I2 = 2000·.12·6 = 1440

  I3 = 2000·.04·16 = 1280

From least-to-greatest, the interest owed will be associated with ...

  • loan 1
  • loan 3
  • loan 2
