Answer:
The simple interest be $3840 .
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula
[tex]Simple\ interest = \frac{Principle\times time\times rate}{100}[/tex]
As
Principal = $8000
Time = 4 years
Interest rate =12%
Put value in the above formula
[tex]Simple\ interest = \frac{8000\times 4\times 12}{100}[/tex]
[tex]Simple\ interest = \frac{384000}{100}[/tex]
Simple interest = $3840
Therefore the simple interest be $3840 .
Answer: $3840
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the formula to calculate simple interest is given by :-
[tex]S.I=Prt[/tex]
Given: Principal (P): $8000
Time (t): 4 years
Interest rate (r): 12% =0.12
Now, the simple interest earned is given by :-
[tex]S.I=8000\times0.12\times4\\\\\Rightarrow\ S.I.=\$3840[/tex]
Hence, Simple interest was earned = $3840
