Answer:
42 months
Explanation:
On an 8% straight term loan of $6,071
The borrower paid a total interest of $1,700 on the loan
Therefore, the term of the loan can be calculated as follows
=$6,071×8/100
= $6,071×0.08
= 485.68
Since there are 12 months in a year
= 485.68/12
= 40.47
$1,700/40.47
= 42
Hence the term of the loan is 42 months
