Answer: To solve for t in terms of P, I and r, we'll use algebraic manipulation of the given formula:

I = Prt

To solve for t, we'll divide both sides of the equation by Pr:

I/Pr = t

So, t = I/Pr

So we can say that the time (in years) is the ratio of the interest earned over the product of principal and the interest rate.
