Alright, lets get started.

Suppose you deposited $100 in a savings account 4 years ago with a simple interest rate of 2.2%.

Principal P= $ 100

Time t = 4 years

rate of interest = 2.2 %

Formula of simple interest
= (P*t*r)/(100)

Plugging the value in formula

simple interest =
(100*4*2.2)/(100)

simple interest =
4 * 2.2

simple interest = $ 8.8

Hence the statement is true. : Answer

Hope it will help :)
