FAQs on Practice Questions - Comparing Quantities, Maths, Class 8

1. What is the formula for calculating simple interest?
Ans. The formula for simple interest is I = (P*R*T)/100, where I is the interest, P is the principal amount, R is the rate of interest, and T is the time period.
2. What is the difference between compound interest and simple interest?
Ans. Simple interest is calculated on the principal amount only, whereas compound interest is calculated on the principal amount as well as the interest earned. Compound interest yields higher returns than simple interest over a long period of time.
