Mr teacher, you're confusing yourself.

S.I is simply = PRT/100.

If you say R should be in decimal, i.e., divided by 100 then the formula would be S.I=PRT.

But in our schools R is taken as a whole number that's why it's PRT/100.
If you take R as a decimal then still divide PRT by 100, then that's complete nonsense.

So, it's the same.
You choose to take R as a percentage and use PRT
Another person takes R as a whole number and uses PRT/100, you would both arrive at the same answer, and both solutions are correct.
So it's no new discovery really, if that's the method you choose to teach your students, it's all good!

No, I am not confusing myself. Mathematically, R cannot and should not be a whole number. We were only taught how to get the correct answer without understanding the principle. Mathematics is all about understanding the principle (not just about answers).

For example, if you are asked to solve 5% of 10, do you say it is 50? No! You do not decide to use the 5 as a whole number because of the percent. Or if you are told to arrange in ascending order : 5%, 2, 4, 3 ,and 1. Will you say 5% is the biggest just because you decide to take it as whole number? No!

My point is on the interpretation not the answer (You can as well check youtube and google).

Please do reason it with an open mind and do get back.

Thanks... just want to bring it to the awareness of our publishers so that they can do the needful.

Do you know who I can approach for the game to be turned to an app?

Thanks once again.

I don't. But there are competent guys in d web/tech section of ds forum who can do that.
