Suppose Serena invests the $2,500 for 3 years and earns $255.What was the rate of interest?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: I=PRT
P for Principle Amount
R for Rate
T for Time in years

255 = 2500 × r × 3
255 = 7500 × r
Divide by 7500 on both sides to isolate r
(255)/(7500)(7500 * r)/(7500)
7500 and 7500 cancels out

0.034 = r
0.034 × 100 = 3.4%  (to convert it as a percentage)
Rate of Interest: 3.4%
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

3.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, Principal= $2500

Simple Interest= $255

Time= 3 years

we have to find the rate of interest

Rate of interest=(simple interest. 100)/( p. t)

Rate=(255)/(2500)×(100)/(3)

Rate of interest= 34%

Hence, rate of interest is 3.4%

Hence, the correct answer is 3.4 %

Rewrite in order from least to greatest 35% 3/10 37/100 0.305

Answers

Answer: 3/10 -> 0.305 -> 35% -> 37/100

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert it all to the same format. Let's choose decimal.

35% = 0.35

3/10 = 0.3

37/100 = 0.37

0.305 = 0.305

We then rank from least to greatest.

0.3 -> 0.305 -> 0.35 -> 0.37

Then convert back.

3/10 -> 0.305 -> 35% -> 37/100
