Can someone enlighten me as to what discriminators Solve uses in 
providing some solutions while disdaining others in the attached simple 
code?
 
Is it an operator or Mathematica bug? I am running 6.0.1 under win xp.


newrent = Table[125000 \[ExponentialE]^(r 14), {r, .01, .04, .005}] // N

Table[Solve[newrent[[i]]/rate == 1894000 , rate], {i, 1, 7}]

Table[Solve[newrent[[i]]/rate == 1894000. , rate], {i, 1, 7}]

Table[Reduce[newrent[[i]]/rate == 1894000 , rate], {i, 1, 7}]

Table[Solve[newrent[[i]] == 1894000 rate, rate], {i, 1, 7}]

 
 Thanks for any help,
