What is ask in the problem?
--> What is the interest on faye's loan after one month

Given:
--> Faye has a loan of $70,000.
--> Bank charges her 6% per annum simple interest

Solution:
Formula for Simple interest ::>>
Where P = Principal / Loan
R = Rate of the bank (Charge)
t = time, Note 1 year = 12 months

I = PRt
= 70,000 (0.06) 1 , we use 1 because the rate is per annum (per year)
= 4, 200 ---> this is the interest after one year.

The problem is what is the interest after one month? Since 1 year = 12 months, we will simply divide the interest in a year by 12

I = $ 350 this is the interest of faye's loan after a month.
