Could you please help me with this @ganeshie8 ??? I need help to figure this out :D thx! Based on simple interest, find the total amount saved or owed. principal = $1056; rate = 3.75%; time = 6 years
so you have deposited $1056 in bank
and bank gives 3.75% interest on ur money every year
use below formula for total interest u wud get :- \(\large Total ~ Interest = \frac{P*R*T}{100}\)
\(\large Total ~ Interest = \frac{1056~*~3.75~*~6}{100}\)
simplify, wat do u get ?
@ganeshie8 now what?
im not sure i understand ur table above :/
\(\large Total ~ Interest = \frac{1056~*~3.75~*~6}{100}\) \(\large Total ~ Interest = 237.6 \)
thats the total Interest you wud get in 6 years okay ?
ok :( I still don't get it D;
add that interest to principal, total money in bank = 1056 + 237.6 = 1293.6
how did u get 237.6?
i have used calculator : http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%5Cfrac%7B1056*3.75*6%7D%7B100%7D
:)
@ganeshie8 that's not a possible answer
oh u have options ha ?
we must have done mistake somewhere... check once :)
yes hehe
lol wat are the options
ugh! I lost the probalm bc my internet went out lol...but heres one like it _________________________________________________________________________ Find the simple interest. principal = $10,400; rate = 12.5%; time = 11 years A. $1300 B. $9152 C. $11,700 D. $14,300
sorry for all the spacing in-between lol...I copied and pasted it d:
Use the same formula
\(\large Simple ~interest = \frac{P~*~R~*~T}{100}\)
\(\large Simple ~interest = \frac{10400~*~12.5~*~11}{100}\)
simplify, you would get 14,300 : http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=10400*12.5*11+%2F100
OH!!! I get it now!!!!!!! you times them all then just divide by 100! :D :D :D!! THX!
yup :)
...ok it didn't work....I tried it again.. with another problem.. and the answer I got was not a possible anwer.. :(
whats the question ?
OH!! its a diff questions.. the first was 1.Find the simple interest. 2.Based on simple interest, find the total amount saved or owed
Based on simple interest, find the total amount saved or owed. principal = $1056; rate = 3.75%; time = 6 years A. $1293.60 B. $1452.00 C. $1689.00 D. $3432.00
find the simple interest first
simple interest = (1056 * 3.75 * 6) / 100 = ?
=23,760
Nope
:(
you should get "237.6" http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=+%281056+*+3.75+*+6%29+%2F+100+
thats the simple interest
=237.6...ohh I was typing when u sent that...I forgot to divide by 100
:)
total money saved = 1056 + 237.6 = ?
=1293.6?
so..A!
You got it !
YAY!
good job :)
:D hwo about this one...how do I do it? The simple interest on an investment of $2000 for one year is $110. What is the interest rate? A. 0.0055% B. 0.055% C. 0.55% D. 5.5%
use te same formula, but this time u need to solve for \(R\)
I = P*T*T/100
110 = 2000*1*R/100
solve R
