In your question I'm assuming you meant to put 6.6% and not 66% because of the decimal you wanted us to use so I used the 0.066 in the formula. All my work is provided in the screen shot that will be attached to my answer! Check that out to see how I got my answer! :)

Have a great day!

Answer:


I=52800$

Use the simple interest formula:

Where:


PV=Amount-of-money-borrowed

t=time(in-years)

Using the data provide:


I=20,000*0.66*4=52800$
