PCPA is used for compound interest. Right?

They've asked the sum for that interest amount.
So,
Let's 5 years interest is 4016.25.
Then 4016.25 / 5 = 803.25.
Now, 803.25 is 9% interest for a year,
Then 803.25 * 100/9 = 8925.
So,
Let's 5 years interest is 4016.25.
Then 4016.25 / 5 = 803.25.
Now, 803.25 is 9% interest for a year,
Then 803.25 * 100/9 = 8925.

@Basil.
It is given in the question that it is simple interest. So SI formula is applied here. PCPA stands here for per cent per annum.

Given,
S.I = 4016.25.
we know S.I = R*T%.
S.I = 9*5 = 45%.
45% - 4016.25.
100% - 4016.25*100/45 = 8925.
S.I = 4016.25.
we know S.I = R*T%.
S.I = 9*5 = 45%.
45% - 4016.25.
100% - 4016.25*100/45 = 8925.

Given:
s.i. =4016.25.
r=9,
t=5 y.
p = (100*s.i.)/r*t.
= 100*4016.25/9*5,
= 401625/45,
= 8925 ans.
s.i. =4016.25.
r=9,
t=5 y.
p = (100*s.i.)/r*t.
= 100*4016.25/9*5,
= 401625/45,
= 8925 ans.

S.I = PTR/100.

Why we take 100?
I can't understand this problem. Please anyone explain this problem.

P.C.P.A is percent compound per annum. Why is it using simple interest formula?
