The simple interest formula is I=Prt. What does the t represent?
A
Principle
B
Interest
C
Time, in hours
D
Time, in years
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In the simple-interest formula I = Prt, the variable I stands for the interest on the original investment, P stands for the amount of the original investment (called the “principal"), r is the interest rate (expressed in decimal form), and t is the time.

Detailed explanation-2: -The simple interest formula is given by I = PRt where I = interest, P = principal, R = rate, and t = time. Here, I = 10, 000 * 0.09 * 5 = $4, 500. The total repayment amount is the interest plus the principal, so $4, 500 + $10, 000 = $14, 500 total repayment.

Detailed explanation-3: -It is governed by the formula: I = Prt. where I is the amount of interest, P is the principal (amount of money borrowed), r is the interest rate (per year), and t is the time (expressed in years).

Detailed explanation-4: -Time = (100 × Interest)/(Principal × Rate) Therefore, Time (T) = 6 years.
