you find the formula... then you calculate it. Its that simple.
simple interest = principle (money) times the rate times the time
6.5%Formula for finding Simple InterestSI [Interest] = (P×R×T)/100P [sum] = (SI×100)/(R×T)R [Rate/year] = (SI×100)/(P×T)T [Time] = (SI×100)/(P×R)whereS.I. = Simple Interest,P = Principal or Sum of amount,R = % Rate per annum,T = Time Span
f(x)= mx+b for simple interest t(n)= abx for compound interest
Simple interest is obtained where you take the interest every year/set period as opposed to compund interest where interest is calculated on the previous answer.For Example: Adding 10% Interest, Starting With 100.Simple: 100, 110, 120, 130...Compund: 100, 110, 121, 133.1...
