3. Group Activity
1. Find the simple interest on P3,000 at the rate of 5%
for 3 years.
2. Find the simple interest on P3,400 at the rate of
6.5% for 5 years.
3. Find the compound interest on the principal P3,000
borrowed at 5% compound annually for 3 years.
4. Find the compound interest on P3,400 invested at
6.5% compound semiannually for 5 years.
5. SimpleInterest- is determined by multiplying the
daily interest rate by the principal
by the number of day that elapse
between payments.
in short, we have
I= PRT
where I stand for simple interest, P is
for Principal, R is for Rate and T is for
the number of periods.
7. Compound
Interest-
is the interest calculated on the
initial principal and also
accumulated interest in the
previous periods of a deposit
or loan.
In formula we have A=P{1+r}n ,
where P stands for Principal, r
for Rate and n for a number of
periods.
9. What is the difference between simple
interest and compound interest?
What is better to use? The simple or
compound interest?
10. Application
For group 1 and 2 you will solve problem number 2 and for
group 3 and 4 you will solve problem number 1.
1. Find the amount of the principal if the interest at 12%
per annum after 8 months is 2400php.
2. If 500php is invested at 8% compounded semiannually,
what will the final amount be after three years?
11. EVALUATION
