Answer 2

$360.

Explanation:

The interest earned on principal P, at the rate of r for the duration of t years is given by the equation I = Prt ........... (1)

Now, we have to calculate the interest earned on $3000, at the rate of 0.04 for 3 years.

Here, P = $3000, r = 0.04 and t = 3 years.

Hence, from equation (1), Interest earned, I = 3000 × 0.04 × 3 = $360 (Answer)
