Pay off whichever one has the highest interest rate.

Pay off the one with the highest rate of interest – probably the credit cards. These cost you more money so you will want to get rid of that debt first.
-
pay off the one with higher interest. the interest is what is killing you.
-
Pay off credit card if you want to improve your credit rating.
That debt is revolving debt – damaging to your report if you carry balances – which some people do.

Missy has the correct answer here and carrying a balance on your revolving debt as long as it is under 30% of the total limit is not damaging to your credit regardless of what other people tell you.
