Which formula to use?

Why you take *100?

Devi said:   1 decade ago
S I = P*R*T /100

P = (100 x S.I)/(R x T)

@Jyothi absolutely right.

I=P*N*R/100
4016.25=P*5*9
4016.25=P*45
P=4016.25/45
P=89.25*100
P=8925

Why 9 is in denominator, The formula is P.R.T/100 and here the Rate and Time is in numerator ?
