<span>i=prt where i is interest (9000-6000 = $3000 interest) p is principle ($6000) r is rate (5.5%) [taking that its 5.5%pa] t is time
substitute these into the equation 3000 = $6000 x 5.5% x t t = 3000 divided by (6000x5.5%) = 3000 divided by 330 t=100/11 years it would take 100/11 years which is approx 9.1 years</span>
First you would do 5 multiplied by the numerator and then make it a mixed number so 5×5 = 25/8 as a mixed number its 3 and 1/8 so it falls between 2 and 4
