Answer:

$2,400

Explanation:

Note: The correct years is 4 not 44

The Principal = $10,000

Time period = 4 years

Rate = 6 % p.a.

Simple Interest = Principal * Rate * Time

Simple Interest = $10,000 * 6% * 44

Simple Interest = $2,400

So, the amount of interest Diego earned after four years is $2,400
