a firm borrowed 12000 dollars at a simple annual interest rate of 8 percent for a period of 3 years. at the end of the first year the firm found that its needs were reduced. the firm returned a portion of the original loan and retained the remainder until the end of the 3- year period. if the total interest paid was 1760 dollars how much was returned at the end of the first year?

Math question- interest rates?
7000 is right-good job responder#1. This took me 30 seconds to figure out in my head. The interest after year 1 is 960. So you paid 800 total over the last 2 years or 400 per year. 400 in interest for 1 year is 8% of 5000. There is probably an algebra formula for this that your teacher was trying to teach you.
