-Would the answer equal out $36,692.4.

(b) How much interest did Carmen pay on the loan?
-$6,496.2

just wondering if I'm correct

Carmen paid monthly payments of $438.27 for 4 years.

i.e.,

1 year = 12 months

4 year = 12 × 4 = 48 months

So,

438.27 × 48 = $21,036.96

Now, the total amount including down payment is,

$21,036.96 + $3900 = $24,936.96

Thus, The total amount Carmen ended up paying for the motorcycle (including the down payment and monthly payments) is $24,936.96.

Interest did Carmen pay on the loan,

$24,936.96 - $23,700 = $1236.96

Thus, The answer is $1236.96.
