OpenStudy (ganpat):

42$ is 3% interest @principle amount of 'x' for the time period of 2 years.. soo use the formula I = prt 42 = x * (3/100) * 2 calculate for x.. that is the answer..

OpenStudy (ganpat):

42$ is the amount @3% interest @principle amount of 'x' for the time period of 2 years I = prt 42 = x * (3/100) * 2 x = (42 * 100) / (3 * 2) x = (42 * 100) / 6 x = 700$.. is the match for 1st one.. now you can do for the rest...

OpenStudy (ganpat):

3% is written as 3/100 simply substitute in the formula and calculate for X.. Understood?
