You can put this solution on YOUR website! A bank charges its customers a general fee of $6 per month plus an additional fee of 10 cents per check written from a checking account. Over the past 9 months, a customer was charged $62 in service fees. How many checks did the customer write during that period?
-----------------------
The monthly charges (for letting the bank use your money) was $54 (6 x $9)
$62 - $54 = $8 for checks
800/10 = 80 checks
-----------------------
If your bank charges a fee for doing nothing, find a different bank.
Don't use checks, pay bills online. Avoid paying for the checks and the postage.
80 checks will cost about another $8.00 for the checks themselves, then postage is
80*$0.44 = $35.20
