What is simple interest?

  • Simple Interest (S.I.) is the method of calculating the interest amount for a particular principal amount of money at some rate of interest.
  • The formula to calculate the simple interest is  [tex]\frac{PNR}{100}[/tex]

where  P is the principle amount

            N is the number of years(time)

            R is the rate

How to calculate how much money will be in the account?

According to the problem,

  • $600 is the principle amount
  • rate is 1.2 %
  • Time is 6 years

∴ Net amount after 6 years = P + (  [tex]\frac{PNR}{100}[/tex])

                                           = $ { 600 + [tex]\frac{(600)(6)(1.2)}{100}[/tex]}

                                           = $ 643.2

∴ Net amount after 6 years is $ 643.2
