    so she saved 82 cents in the interest the month after

    Step-by-step explanation:

    case 1: payment is $75

    interest on 2000 = 0.125/12*2000 = $20.83

    so the actual repayment on the balance = (75-20.83) = $54.17

    therefore, balance = $ (2000-54.7) = $1945.83

    interest in the next month = $20.27

    case 2: payment is $100

    interest on 2000 is still $20.83

    repayment = $79.73

    balance = $1920.27

    interest in the next month = 20.01

    so she saved 82 cents in the interest the month after
