    The amount of down payment is $1368.08.

    We add the fees to the price of the vehicle:

    15000+450+275 = 15725.

    We take 100% of this number and add an additional 8.75% sales tax; 100+8.75 = 108.75; 108.75% = 108.75/100 = 1.0875:

    1.0875 (15725) = 17100.94

    He paid 8% of this total as a down payment; 8% = 8/100 = 0.08:

    17100.94*0.08 = 1368.08
