Kevin earned $165 interest for 1 year on an investment of $1500. At the same rate, what amount of interest would be earned by an investment of $2500?
-------------
Let "x} be the rate of interest.
1500x=165
x=0.11 or 11%
------------
0.11(2500)=$275 (interest he would earn on an investment of $2500)
