Answer: $274.05

Explanation
Ok so, use the formula I=Prt
Meaning principal, rate, and time.

First, turn the % into 100...
Or just move the decimal two times to the right.
= .0725

Next, turn 48 months into years. 12 ÷ 4 = 48.

= 4 years

And finally, multiply ‍♀
You can multiple them in the order of the formula.
945× 0.0725 × 4

Giving you the answer of, $274.05.

Hopefully this helps ‍♀
