Question: Lana and Mike are taking their dog and renting a cabin in the mountains for 2 weeks. The daily rate is $125.00 There is a $100.00 pet fee. There is also a 20% service/cleaning fee for the rental. They need to pay 50% of the entire bill as a security deposit. How much is their security deposit? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
There are 7 days in a week and they're going for 2 weeks so that's 7 * 2 = 14 days. The daily rate is $125.00 and they are staying for 14 days so that's 125 * 14 = $1,750.00. There is also a $100.00 pet fee on top of their rental fee of $1,750.00 so that's 100 + 1750 = $1850.00. There is a 20% fee on the $1,850.00 so the fee comes to .20 * 1850 = $370.00. The rental will costs $1,850.00 and there is $370.00 service / cleaning fee for a total of 1850 + 370 = $2,220.00. They need to pay 50% of the entire bill as a security deposit so that will be .5 * 2220 = $1,110.00. So the answer is 1110.
