Answer:

I = $4204.8

Explanation:

Given that,

Principal, P = $43,800

Interest rate = 4.8%

Rate = 2 years

We need to find the interest that is paid back. We know that, simple interest is given by :


I=(PRT)/(100)

Put all the values,


I=(43800* 4.8* 2)/(100)\\\\=\$4204.8

So, the required interest is equal to $4204.8 .
