What will be the principal if simple interest is Rs 600 for 2 years at the rate of 12.5?

$\huge\tt\colorbox{white}{To\:Find}$

• $\sf\:Principal$

$\huge\tt\colorbox{white}{Solution}$

$\large\sf\underline{Given}$

• $\sf\:Simple\:Interest=Rs 600$

• $\sf\:Time=2yrs$

• $\sf\:Rate=12.5%$

We know,

$\sf⟹\:Principal=\frac{SI \times 100}{Rate \times Time}$

$\sf⟹\:Principal=\frac{600 \times 100}{12.5 \times 2}$

$\sf⟹\:Principal=\frac{60000}{25}$

$\sf⟹\:Principal=\frac{12000}{5}$

$\tt\pink{⟹\:Principal=Rs 2400}$
