Interest is the amount of money charged for
borrowing money, or the amount of money earned
when saving or investing money. Principal is the
amount borrowed or invested. Simple interest is
interest paid only on the principal.

Example 2A: Financial Application
Find the simple interest paid for 3 years on
a $2500 loan at 11.5% per year.
I = Prt
I = (2500)(0.115)(3)
I = 862.50

interest.
Substitute the given values.
45 = 2500r
0.018 = r
The interest rate is 1.8%.
Holt Algebra 1
Multiply 5000
.. Since r is
multiplied by 2500, divide
both sides by 2500 to undo
the multiplication.

The simple interest paid on a loan after 6
months was $306. The annual interest rate
was 8%. Find the principal.
I = Prt
306 = (P)(0.08)

Write the formula for simple
interest.
Substitute the given values.
Multiply 0.08
. Since P is
multiplied by 0.04 , divide
both sides by 0.04.
7650 = P
The remaining principal is $7650.

A tip is an amount of money added to a bill for
service. it is usually a percent of the bill before
sales tax is added. Sales tax is a percent of
an item’s cost.

Application of Percents
Sales tax and tips are sometimes estimated
instead of calculated exactly. When estimating
percents, use percents that you can calculate
mentally.
• Find 10% of a number by moving the
decimal point one place to the left.
• Find 1% of a number by moving the
decimal point two places to the left.
• Find 5% of a number by finding
of the number.

Example 3A: Estimating with Percents
Lunch at a restaurant is $27.88. Estimate a
15% tip.
Step 1 First round $27.88 to $30.
Step 2 Think: 15% = 10% + 5% Move the decimal
point one place left.
10% of $30 = $3.00
Step 3 Think 5% = 10% ÷ 2
= $3.00 ÷ 2 = $1.50
Step 4 15 = 10% + 5%
= $3.00 + $1.50 = $4.50
The tip should be about $4.50.

Example 3B: Estimating with Percents
The sales tax rate is 7.25%. Estimate the sales
tax on a book that costs $19.97.
Step 1 First round 7.25% to 7% and
$19.97 to $20.
Step 2 Think: 7% = 7(1%)
1% of $20 =$0.20
Step 3 7% = 7(1%)
= 7($0.20) = $1.40
The sales tax is about $1.40.

Estimate a 15% tip on a check for $21.98.
Step 1 Think: 15% = 10% + 5%
10% of $22 = $2.20
Move the decimal
point one place left.
Step 2 Think 5% = 10% ÷ 2
$2.20 ÷ 2 = $1.10
Step 3 15% = 10% +5%
= $2.20 + $1.10 = $3.30
The tip should be about $3.30.

Estimate the tax on shoes that cost $68.50
when the sales tax rate is 8.25%.
Step 1 First round 8.25% to 8% and
$68.50 to $70.
Step 2 Think: 8% = 8(1%)
1% of $70 =$0.70
Step 3 8% = 8(1%)
= 8($0.70) = $5.60
The sales tax is about $5.60.
