Paula frye loaned $10,000 to her son's new business at 5% ordinary simple interest (360-day year). at the end of the loan period, paula received the $10,000 plus $125 interest. compute the length of the loan period (to the nearest day)

The length of the loan period is 0.25 years , i.e 3 months

Let the duration of loan period = T years

From Simple Interest method

Simple Interest =

or, $ 125 =

or. 125 × 100 = 10,000 × 5 × T

or, T =

or, T =

∴ T = 0.25

So, the time period of loan = 0.25 years = 3 months
