If a man earns $420 interest in one year at 7%, what was the amount of money invested? $29.40 $60.00 $600.00 $6,000.00

Parth (parthkohli):

Let's say that the total money invested is \(x\). 7% of the total money is 420, right? \( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow 0.07x = 420 }\) Solve for \(x\). :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait so the answer would be 600.00

Parth (parthkohli):

Nope nope...

Parth (parthkohli):

\( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow 420 \div 0.07 = x }\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hahah ohh.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

60.00?

Parth (parthkohli):

You can work with fractions too! \( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow \Large \cancel{420} \times {100 \over \cancel7} }\) \( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow 60 \times 100 }\)
