If a purchase of $1,200 is split into 6 payments, how much is each payment?

To determine the amount of each payment when a purchase of $1,200 is divided into 6 equal payments, you need to perform a simple division.

Start with the total amount of the purchase, which is $1,200. To find the amount for each individual payment, you divide this total by the number of payments, which in this case is 6:

[

\text{Payment per installment} = \frac{1200}{6}

]

Calculating this gives:

[

\text{Payment per installment} = 200

]

Thus, each payment would be $200. This value has been confirmed through straightforward division.

In this context, the correct answer should be $200, which accurately reflects the division of the total purchase amount by the number of payments. It appears there may have been a misunderstanding regarding which option represented the correct amount for each payment.
