ANSWER

It will take 5 years.

EXPLANATION

The simple is calculated using the formula;

[tex]I= \frac{PRT}{100} [/tex]

Solve for T,

[tex]100I=PRT[/tex]

[tex]T = \frac{100I}{PR} [/tex]

We substitute

The principal

P=$ 2500

Interest

I= $500

Rate percent
R%=4%

[tex]T = \frac{100 \times 500}{2500 \times 4} [/tex]

[tex]T = 5[/tex]
