Answer:

$7000

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 1.6%/100 = 0.016 per year,

then, solving our equation

P = 224 / ( 0.016 × 2 ) = 7000

P = $ 7,000.00

The principal required to

accumulate interest of $ 224.00

on a rate of 1.6% per year for 2 years is $ 7,000.00.
