I think the answer is 5600

Adedamola Samuel

How did you get 11P

Eniola

P+P+2*5=11p

Kanyinsola Ifeyemi

Amount(A)=principal(P)+ simple interest(I)
Simple interest = PRT/100
A=P +PRT/100
Substitute the given values
4400= P + P×2×5/100
4400=P + P/10
Find the LCM
4400 =11P/10
Cross multiply
44000=11P
P = 44000/ 11
P= #4,000
