In this example, add the balances to get a total balance of $1,175,000. Divide each loan balance by the total balance to determine the weight of each loan. In this example, divide $300,000 by $1,175,000 to get a weight of 0.255 for the first loan.
Replacing a bad burner element. 1  If the problem is the plug-in element, raise it up slightly and pull it straight out. 2  Check the contacts of the element prongs for cleanliness and damage. If they are clean and undamaged, reinsert the element and turn it on to test it. 3  If the element is wired directly, you will have to raise the cooktop.
Spot Cleaning. 1. Make sure the burner has completely cooled and pull it up and out of your stove top. For gas stove tops, remove the grate covering the drip pan and gently lift the pan out. 2. Remove the drip pan and run it under warm water. Wear rubber gloves to protect your hands.
