What is simple interest?

Simple interest is defined as the amount of interest paid on a specific principal, an amount at a specific interest rate. It is given by

I = Prt

where, I = simple interest, P = Principal, r = rate of interest, t = time taken

Given, P = $100

I = $135

r = 0.15

t = ?

So, simple interest is given by:

I = Prt

or, 135 = 100*0.15*t

or, 135 = 15*t

or, t = (135/15) = 9 years = 9*12 = 108 months

Hence, the total time required in months is 108 months.
