Answer 9

13,500

To get this answer take 15,000 divide by 10 (or since this ends in 0's just drop the last 0 and it is like dividing by ten)

you will get 1,500

Now sub track this answer from the original amount

15,000
- 1,500
----------
13,500

(that trick of dropping 1 zero to divide by ten also work for dividing by 100, 1000, etc << to divide by 100 drop 2 zero's, to divide by 1000 drop 3, etc ..)

Hope this will help you!!
