Problema Solution

If lexi borrows $950 for 6 months at a simple interest rate of 7% per year. How much interest will she have to pay for this loan?

Answer provided by our tutors

P = $950 principal

r = 0.07 or 7% annual interest

t = 6/12 = 0.5 years

I = the interest she needs to pay


I = P*r*t


I = 950*0.07*0.5


I = $33.25
