katie is renting an apartment. She pays the landlord the first months rent. The landlord also requires her to pays an additional half a months rent for a security deposit. The total amount she pays the landlord before moving in is 1725.

Write an equation that can be used to find the total monthly rent.

Respuesta :

She pays 1 1/2 month rent. So u need to find a 1/3 of the total to find half a months rent and times it by 2.
1725÷ 3= 575
575×2 = 1150
1150 is the months rent
2(1725/3) = 1150 is the equation
