The equation for finding simple interest is I=PRT, where I represents interest, P represents principle, R represents rate, and T represents time.
If we substitute all the variables given, then the equation looks like:
I=PRT

Now, we have one equation with one variable, which means that we can solve it.



So, the time factor is two.
