answer is C. 1,250.00
PClark000
The formula for simple interest is - I = P • r • t

Where:
1.) P is the principle amount ( 2500.00 ).
2.) r is the interest rate
10% = 10/100 = ( 0.1 )
3.) t is the time ( 5 )

So your equation should look like.

I = 2500.00 • 0.1 • 5
2500.00 • 0.5
1250.00
I = 1250.00
