Simple Interest (SI) when interest is calculated on the original principal every year (or every time period).
Principal (P) Original Sum Borrowed Rate (r) Annual rate of Interest in %age
Time (n) Time of the loan, in years Amount (A) Principal + Interest

3. Rate of SI (rs) = 𝑷×𝒏 where r is in decimals

4. Time of loan (n) = 𝑷×𝒓 where r is in decimals (If time is in months, divide it by 12 to get in years);

If the interest earned in a year (n=1) is same in CI and SI and k>1 (compounded multiple times in a
year), then knowing the rate of interest of one, we can find the other. In general, rc < rs
