I'll try but I stink at algebra
OpenStudy (sunfire):
okay so I=PxRxT so P is principal the starting amount of money
OpenStudy (sunfire):
than you have R is rate which are supposed to be in decimals so you have to turn the percentages into decimals
OpenStudy (sunfire):
which if you are to turn 4% into a decimal what would you get?
OpenStudy (znappydooz):
I = 350 * 0.04 * T ?

yep! and the Time would be two years
OpenStudy (sunfire):
but. There is a problem
OpenStudy (sunfire):
R is supposed to be yearly not monthly
OpenStudy (znappydooz):
So, we would change it into years? But isn't it already in years? Or would be change it to 24 months?
OpenStudy (sunfire):
no we would change it to 12 months so you have to multiply it by 12 (anyone correct me if I am wrong)

So if its 2 years, it would change to 24? Or would it stay as 12?
OpenStudy (sunfire):
24! sorry I didn't see that
OpenStudy (znappydooz):
Alright so it would be I = 350 * 0.04 * 24
OpenStudy (znappydooz):
Do i solve that?
OpenStudy (sunfire):
yup
