Question

if the simple interest on a certain sum of money for 3 years at the rate of 12.5% is rupees 3500 less than its principal. find the sum and simple interest?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Principle=x=₹5600

SI=x-3500=5600-3500=₹2100

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P=x

SI=x-3500

R=12.5%

T=3 yrs

SI=PRT/100

x-3500=x*12.5*3/100

x-3500=37.5x/100

100(x-3500)=37.5x

100x-350000=37.5x

100x-37.5x=350000

62.5x=350000

x=350000/62.5

x=5600
