a.
$6,250
c.
$625
b.
$118,750
d.
$62,500

Answer :

Answer:

a.

$6,250

Step-by-step explanation:

Finances 95% of the loan.

So you have to pay 100% - 95% = 5% of the loan.

The amount of the home is listed at $125,000.

You have to pay 5% of this. So

0.05*125000 = $6,250

The answer is given by option A.
