C)$4500
D)$5100
E)None of the above

Please state how you got you're answer

Answer 1

15%=0.15

6000×0.15=900

He paid $900 (15% of $6000; 6000×0.15=900)

$6000-$900= $5100

and he still have to pay $5100

Answer 2

D) $5100

15% = 0.15

$6000 x 0.15 = $900
^total ^% ^deposit

$6000 - $900 = $5100
^total ^deposit ^amount left to pay
