Answer: 1 year, 5 months or 17 months
Step-by-step explanation:
Interest (I) = $60
Principal (P) = $500
Rate (R) = 8%
Time (T) =?
Since, Simple Interest (I) = (P x T x R) / 100
making T the subject of formula;
T = 100I / P x R
Inputting the values
T = 100 x 60 / 500 x 8
T = 6000 / 4000
T = 1 year, 5 months
