Elian Ross · Answer 1

Option D is correct from how the three tear lease on a car with an original MSRP of $38,00

Dana Farley · Answer 2

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Price of car = $38,000

Current Price of car = $28,500

The residual value of Sally's leased car = x = ?

Residual value * Original Price = Current Price

x * 38,000 = 28,500

x = 28,500/38,000

x = 0.75

Since we need to find percentage

Multiply the residual value with 100 i. e,

0.75 * 100 = 75%

Option D is correct.
