Quiz masters take not of the time participants sent answers

Solution to Question 18
Let us say Braun invested $100.

Then, at the end of 'n' years he would have got back $400.

Therefore, the Simple Interest earned = 400 - 100 = $300.

We know that Simple Interest = (principal x no of yrs x interest rate)/100

Substituting the values in the above equation we get 300 = (100 x n x8)/100

Or 8n = 300

Or n = 37.5 years.

Got it smiley
I used A = P + I and
I = PRT/100
Put in P = x and A = 4x... bla bla
