Answer:
(1) The formula to calculate simple interest (SI), with principal = 600$, annual rate = 4% = 0.04, and time = 9 months is:
SI = principal x rate x time
= 600 x (0.04/12) x 9
= 18$
(2) The formula to calculate the time that man walked 3.75 km, with rate of 1.25:
Time = Distance/Rate
= 3.75/1.25
= 3
