Answer 1

Amount owed by Wang = $8500

Let the amount paid by him each month be = x

Remaining debt after 12 months = $6460

Hence, Wang had paid = $8500-6460=2040$ in 12 months

Let us assume that Wang paid the same amount per month for 12 months

So, he paid = $\frac{2040}{12}=170$

Wang paid each month $170.
