ok:

so he deposits $4000 into an account earning 5% simple interest p/a:

I = PRT/100

I = 4000 * 5 * 1 /100

I = $20

Second one:

I=PRT/100

I = $600

therefore, the total simple interest earned is $800!

BTW, I mans interest, P means Principal (the amount of money you start off with) R= rate (ie the interest rate) and T = times. It is all over 100 to make the percentage (the rate) into a fraction so the numver isn’t astronomical!

hope this helps!

If the ratio is 3:2 then for $10,000 there will be $6,000 in bank A and $4,000 in bank B.

$6,000@ 5% = $300, 6,000*.05

$4,000@10%=$400, 4,000*.1

Total = 300+400=$700
