Simple interest = x + 14 × 2/100 = 168.
28x/100 = 168.
28x = 168×100.
28X = 16800.
X = 600.
Then, 600 + 168 = 768.
28x/100 = 168.
28x = 168×100.
28X = 16800.
X = 600.
Then, 600 + 168 = 768.

Why pw=100*td/r*t
pw=100*td/(100+(r*t)) why not?
What the diff between these 2 formula's ?
pw=100*td/(100+(r*t)) why not?
