@SyedMohammed98 @ribhu

Mehek (mehek14):

what is 2% of 350

OpenStudy (thebadyboy):

this is easy

OpenStudy (ribhu):

350*2*3/100 = 350*6/100

OpenStudy (ribhu):

PRT/100 = Simple Interest.

OpenStudy (ribhu):

where P = Principal = $350 R= rate of interest = 2% T = time = 3yrs

syed98 (syedmohammed98):

2/100--->0.02*350--->7 it's 3 years so 7 + 7 + 7 = 21 so it's D

OpenStudy (ribhu):

@sissyedgar did u calculate? answer is D = $21

OpenStudy (sissyedgar):

syed98 (syedmohammed98):

ur welcome

OpenStudy (anonymous):

simple use formula i=p multiply r multiply t/100 i=350*2*3/100=21 ans
