Answer:

I=Prt

Explanation:

The simple interest formula is given as;

I = Prt

where I is the simple interest

p is the principal

r is the percentage rate

t is the duration

Simple interest accrues on the principal of either a loan or an investment. This amount is payable after a duration of time.

Principal is the amount borrowed or invested in a business

Rate is the percentage commission to be paid on the amount borrowed

Time is the duration of the borrowing.
