Note: Show Principal, Rate and Time when solving Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! I=prt
principal is x, unknown
I=x*0.07*7/12, since it is 7 months
=0.0408x
that interest plus principal x=$2000
x+0.0408x=2000=1.0408x
x=$1921.53, which is the principal needed to deposit.
