PCPA is used for compound interest. Right?

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.

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

5 years = 4016.25.
So, 1 years = 803.25.
Now formula, Rate % = Interest/principalx100(only for 1 years).
So, principal=803.25/9x100=8925.
Hence principal = 8925 ans=(C).
So, 1 years = 803.25.
Now formula, Rate % = Interest/principalx100(only for 1 years).
So, principal=803.25/9x100=8925.
Hence principal = 8925 ans=(C).

@Fortune.
We know that P = S.I*100/R*T.
Given S.I = 4016.25, R = 9, T = 5.
Substitute these values in above formula,
Then,
P = 4016.25*100/9*5.
P = 4016.25*20/9 (Cancel 100 with 5).
P = 80325/9.
By simplifying this we get.
P = Rs.8925.
Hope it is understandable.

HERE IS AN INTERESTING TRICK:
Since, the rate is 9% for 5 years, so total SI is 45%.
Now 45% = 4016.25 so 100% = 4016.25*100/45 = 8925.
Since, the rate is 9% for 5 years, so total SI is 45%.
Now 45% = 4016.25 so 100% = 4016.25*100/45 = 8925.

Simple interest = 4016.25.
Rate = 9%.
Time=5 year's.
Sum = si * 100/r.
Sum=4016.25 * 100/9 * 5,
= 401625 ÷ 45.
Sum = 8925 answer.
Rate = 9%.
Time=5 year's.
Sum = si * 100/r.
Sum=4016.25 * 100/9 * 5,
= 401625 ÷ 45.
Sum = 8925 answer.

We can also use the formula.
Simple interest =principal *rate *time all over 100.
4016.25=p*9*5/100,
4016.25=45p/100,
Then cross multiply;
45p=401625,
divid both side by 45.
p=8925.
There the sum = 8925.
Simple interest =principal *rate *time all over 100.
4016.25=p*9*5/100,
4016.25=45p/100,
Then cross multiply;
45p=401625,
divid both side by 45.
p=8925.
There the sum = 8925.

A=p(1+RT/100).
A=total money, borrow,
P=lended,loan,sum,
R=rate,
T=time.
