Question
**Loan Repayment Example**

A friend lends you $200 for a week, which you agree to repay with a 5% one-time interest. How much will you have to repay?

---

To calculate the repayment amount:

1. **Initial Loan Amount**: $200
2. **Interest Rate**: 5%

**Interest Calculation**:

\[ \text{Interest} = \text{Principal} \times \text{Interest Rate} \]

\[ \text{Interest} = 200 \times 0.05 = 10 \]

**Total Repayment**:

\[ \text{Total Repayment} = \text{Principal} + \text{Interest} \]

\[ \text{Total Repayment} = 200 + 10 = 210 \]

Therefore, you will need to repay $210 at the end of the week.
