1. What is the difference between simple interest and compound interest?
Ans. Simple interest is calculated only on the principal amount, while compound interest is calculated on the principal amount as well as the interest accumulated over previous periods.
2. How can we calculate the amount after a certain period with compound interest?
Ans. The formula to calculate the amount after a certain period with compound interest is A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt), where A is the total amount, P is the principal amount, r is the rate of interest, n is the number of times interest is compounded per year, and t is the number of years.
3. What is the formula to calculate the compound interest?
Ans. The formula to calculate compound interest is CI = P(1 + r/n)^(nt) - P, where CI is the compound interest, P is the principal amount, r is the rate of interest, n is the number of times interest is compounded per year, and t is the number of years.
4. How can we compare the prices of two items with different quantities and prices?
Ans. To compare the prices of two items with different quantities and prices, we can calculate the price per unit for each item by dividing the total price by the quantity. Then, we can compare the price per unit to determine which item offers better value for money.
