    Interest
    ::利息利息利息利息

    Saving money and making wise investments will be an important part of your financial planning. Part of investing is earning interest. When you save money in the bank, the bank uses that money for its own investments. In return for using your money, the bank pays you a certain percent. Interest is the percent that a bank pays you for keeping your money in their bank.
    ::储蓄和明智的投资将是你财务规划的重要组成部分。 投资的一部分是赚取利息。 当你在银行储蓄时,银行用这笔钱进行自己的投资。 作为回报,银行用你的钱支付一定的百分之一。 利息是银行用银行的钱来支付你的钱存入银行的百分之一。

    All banks have an interest rate  r which tells you what percent they will pay you per year t . The principal,  p is the amount of money that you borrow or save. In order to calculate how much interest you will make, you can use the formula :
    ::所有银行都有利率 r , 该利率告诉你他们每年会付给你什么百分比 t。 本金, p 是您借款或储蓄的金额 。 为了计算您将赚多少利息, 您可以使用公式 :

    I = P R T

    ::I=PRT

    Now let’s look at an example using this formula to calculate interest.
    ::现在让我们看看一个使用这个公式来计算利息的例子。

    You invest $5,000 in a bank for 2 years at a 3% interest rate. What is the interest you have earned after this time?
    ::您在银行投资 5,000 美元 2 年,利率为 3% 的利率。 这次之后您赚到的利息是多少 ?

    First, using the formula for simple interest, fill in all of the numbers you know.
    ::首先,使用简单利息的公式,填满所有你认识的数字。

    p = $ 5000 r = 3 %   or   0.03 t = 2   years
    ::p=50000美元=3%或0.03t=2年

    I = P R T I = ( 5000 ) ( 0.03 ) ( 2 )

    ::I=PRTI=(5000)(0.03)(2)

    Next, solve for I .
    ::下一个,解决我。

    I = ( 5000 ) ( 0.03 ) ( 2 ) I = 300

    ::I=50000(0.003)(2)I=300

    The answer is 300.
    ::答案是300

    You have earned $300 in interest in the two years.
    ::这两年你赚了三百元利息

    Let’s look at another example.
    ::让我们再看看另一个例子。

    Mrs. Payne has $20,000 to invest. She wants to earn $10,000 in interest. She is considering a savings and loans bank that is offering her 5.6% interest per year. For how long will she have to leave her money in the bank in order to reach her goal of $10,000?
    ::Payne夫人有20,000美元的投资。她想赚10,000美元的利息。她正在考虑一个储蓄和贷款银行,每年向她提供5.6%的利息。她需要离开银行多久才能达到10,000美元的目标?

    ::I=1000p=20000r=5.6%或0.056

    I = P R T 10000 = ( 20000 ) ( 0.056 ) ( t ) 10000 = 1120   t

    ::I=PRT1000=(20000)(0.056)(t)1000=1120 t

    Next, solve for  t by dividing both sides by 1120.
    ::接下来,通过将双方除以1120来解决 t。

    10000 =   1120   t 10000 1120 = 1120   t 1120 t = 8.93

    ::答案是8.93。

    Mrs. Payne will have to leave her money in the bank for almost 9 years.
    ::佩恩夫人得把她的钱留在银行里 将近9年了

    You can use the simple interest formula  ( I = P R T ) to find any of the missing variables if you are given values of the others. You have just used it to solve for  I and t .
    ::您可以使用简单的利息公式( I=PRT) 来查找其它变量的值中缺失的变量。 您只是用它来为 I 和 t 解析 。

    Let’s try another example.
    ::让我们再试一个例子。

    ::p=3,00000r=3.9%或0.039t=5年

    I = P R T I = ( 3000 ) ( 0.039 ) ( 5 )

    ::I=PRTI=(3,000)(0.039)(5)

    Next, solve for I
    ::下一个,解决我。

    I = ( 3000 ) ( 0.039 ) ( 5 ) I = 585

    ::I=3000(0.039)(5)I=585

    Then, to find the bank balance, add the interest earned to the amount invested.
    ::然后,为了找到银行余额,将所得利息加上投资额。

    balance = 3000 + 585 = 3585

    ::=3 000+585=3585
