Here,

Profit - 20%

Sp - 500

Cp - ?

Now, ( let, Cp be x )

Sp = Cp + P% of Cp

500 = x + 20/100*x

500 = (100x + 20x)/100

500*100 = 120x

50000 = 120x

x = 416.66

Cp = 416.66

I hope you understand...

Use the formula for simple interest, I = Prt, to find the indicated quantity. Assume a 360 day year.

Kipish [7]

Answer:

r = 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Interest, I = $24

Principal, P = $1200

Time, t = 90 days = 90/360 = 1/4 years

We need to find the rate.

We know that,

The simple interest is given by :

$I=\dfrac{Prt}{100}$

Put all the values,

$r=\dfrac{100I}{Pt}\\\\r=\dfrac{100\times 24}{1200\times \dfrac{1}{4}}\\\\r=8\%$

So, the rate is 8%.
