"I have a credit card whose billing period begins on the 9th day of every month. On January 9th my balance was $853. I made the following charges: $95 on Jan 11, $235 on Jan 18, and $490 on Jan 30. I paid $500 on Jan 20. My card's interest rate is 19%. What will be the total balance on my Feb 9th statement?"
