Answer:

Simple interest = $ 3,484.00

Explanation:

I= P×R×T ÷ 100

The rate is 6 1/2 and I will use the decimal form 6.5,to change that to a whole number we simply move the decimal point one place behind.

Since we moved the decimal point in the numerator we need to do the same for the denominator.Therefore 100 becomes 1000.

13400 × 65 × 4 = $ 3,484.00

1000
