Answer» Principal + interest for 2 YEARS = 2240 ---------1 Principal + interest for 5 years = 2600 --------2 Subtracting 1 from 2 = 2600 - 2240 = 360 interest for three years = 360 so interest for 1 year = 360/3 = 120 interest for 2 years = 2 x 120 = 240 Principal for 2 years = 2240 Interest for 2 years = 240 Principal = 2240 - 240 = 2000 |
