since this is a multiplication, all the numerators are just factors of the product numerator and all denominators are just factors of the product denominator, so we can simply reorder them some, without changing the product.
Answer:
72 m
Step-by-step explanation:
45. Using order of operations.
7 is the number increased by 5 = 12
Principal P = $500, Rate = 3 % = 3/100 = 0.03 would assume per year,
Time t = 6 months = (6/12) year = 0.5 year.
Simple Interest, I = P*r*t
= 500*0.03*0.5 = 7.5
And so therefore your answer is 7.5
