Question

If the simple interest on a certain sum is 5/20 of the sum at the rate of 5%, find the time.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Time = 5years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the p be x and time be t.

so SI = 5x/20

Time = SI × 100 / P × R

= 5x × 100 / x × 20 × 5

= 100x / 100x

= 1

Now SI was 5/20 of the sum.

So now time = 5×1 = 5years
