Answer:

I =Simple Interest

P=Principal

T=Time

r=Rate of Interest

----Formula to evaluate Simple Interest

I=Prt

--If we have to calculate Principal(P), then this formula can be written in following way


P=(I)/(rt)

--If we have to calculate Rate of interest(r), then this formula can be written in following way


r=(I)/(Pt)

---If we have to calculate Time(t), then this formula can be written in following way


t=(I)/(Pr)

The question is asking to calculate and rearranged the formula for the simple interest, by calculating the rte, base on my research, I would say that the answer would be r= i/pt. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more if you have questions and further clarifications
