Musa borrows N10.00 at 2% per month simple interest and repays N8.00 after 4 months. How much does he still owe?
N10.80
N10.67
N2.80
N2.67

Explanation

I = \(\frac{PRT}{100}\)

= \(\frac{10 \times 2 \times 4}{100}\)

= \(\frac{4}{5}\)

= 0.8

Total amount = N10.80

He pays N8.00

Remainder = 10.80 - 8.00

= N2.80
