Step-by-step explanation:

First find the difference between the total payment and what the payment would have been prior to to the 20 days late fee. Divide that number by the amount of days overdue (20) to find the cost of each day overdue. Divide that number of what each day overdue is by the cost of the bill prior to overdue fees. Move the decimal two places to the right.
