Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

I = PRT/100 will do it.

I = Simple interest.

P = Principal ( Intial Amount invested).

R = Rate (as a percent).

T = time invested.


The above formula gives the amount of interest, If you want to find the interest rate knowing all the other values you have to solve for R:

I = PRT/100

100 I = PRT

R = 100I / PT is the formula .
