so easy!
rate of interest= 165/1500= 0.11
at the same rate,
amount of interest= 2500 x 0.11=275

1500 r / 100 = 165
r=165. 100 / 1500= 165/15= 31 /3
2500 . (31/3) / 100=25. 31 /3 =258 $

165 x
----- = ------
1500 2500
165x2500= 1500x
Divde both sides by 1500
412500/1500=275=x
Cross Multiply and divide
