Question

find the principal,if si=60,rate=6 and time=5

Answer 1

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

si = p*r*t/100

60= p*6*5/100

60*100/6*5=p

200=p

Answer 2

Given: SI=$60$, rate=$6\%$, and time=$5$

We have to find the principal.

• As we know that the simple Interest of an amount is calculated by multiplying the interest rate by the principal amount and the time period.
• The formula is used to calculate the simple interest is:

         $SI=\frac{P\times R\times T}{100}$

Where,

P = Principal Amount

T = Time in Years

R = Rate of Interest per Annum

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

SI=$60$, rate=$6\%$, and time=$5$

By putting the value in the formula:

$\Rightarrow 60=\frac{P\times6\times5}{100} \\\\\Rightarrow 60\times100=P\times6\times5\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{6000}{6\times5} \\\\\Rightarrow P=200$

Hence, the principal will be $200$Rs.
