1. To find the interest, subtract the principal from the balance.

       $618 - $600 = $18

2.Use the simple interest formula and solve for r.

       I = Prt

      18= 600 x r x (1/2)

       r= 0.06 =6%

1 + 1 = 121 = 1x1 1+1 1x1

1 + 2 = 134 = 1x1 1+2 2x2

2 + 2 = 444 = 2x2 2+2 2x2

3 + 2 = 954 = 3x3 3+2 2x2

3 + 3 = ?   

Similarly, 3x3 3+3 3x3 = 969

"G is father in law of D"
G+H means G is father of H
H is either son or daughter of G

so husband of R i.e. D is son in law of G
or G is father in law of D
