Enriched Pre­Algebra ­ Simple Interest (Chapter 5­8)
Simple Interest
Enriched Pre-Algebra
Find the simple interest to
the nearest cent.
1. $300 at 7.5% for 5 years
2. $230 at 12% for 8 months
Interest: The amount paid or earned
for the use of money.
Principal: The amount of money
invested or borrowed.
I = prt
I - Interest
p = principal
r = rate (interest rate)
t = time (in years)
Steps: Finding the Interest
Write out the formula:
I = prt.
2.
Plug in the values for each part
of the formula.
3.
Change the percent to a decimal.
4.
Write the time in years (you may
have the convert months to years)
Example: 3 months = 0.25 years
5.
Solve the equation to find the
Simple Interest.
1.
3. $500 at 6.25% for 3 years
Find the total amount in each
account to the nearest cent.
1. $660 at 5.25% for 2 years
Steps: Finding the Total Amount
1.
Find the interest using the steps
listed under “Finding the Interest”.
2.
Add the interest to the original
amount to find the total amount.
2. $385 at 12.6% for 9 months
