Regina is buying a new car. She sees two advertisements in the paper for the same car at two different prices from two different dealerships. Both dealers are offering a simple-interest loan for the price of the car.

A photo of car includes two ads. Ad A shows the vehicle priced at twenty-four thousand two hundred dollars at six point five percent interest and an unknown number of years. Ad B shows an unknown price, at a five point three percent interest over nine years.
