Hello!
Since she got a rebate of $1,250 on the price, and price was $14,900, then the "net" price of the car would be:

Also, she made a down payment of 750. So the amount that has yet to be paid is:

These $12,900 are to be paid in 60 monthly payments, with 0% interest rate. The fact that the interest rate is zero simplifies things: she will simply pay $12,900 divided equally across 60 months. So the monthly payment will be:

The payment will be $215 per month
I hope this helps!
