12% simple interest p.a. equals
0.12/365 simple interest per day.
Principal=P10000
interest per day = P10000*0.12/365
=P3.28767 /day
Time it takes to reach P700(=P10700-P10000)
= P700/(P3.28767)
= 212.9 days rounded up to
= 213 days
0.12/365 simple interest per day.
Principal=P10000
interest per day = P10000*0.12/365
=P3.28767 /day
Time it takes to reach P700(=P10700-P10000)
= P700/(P3.28767)
