Answer:

$1,326

Explanation:

You are going to want to use the simple interest formula for this.


I=Prt

I = interest amount

P = principal amount

r = interest rate

t = time

First, change 1.7% into its decimal form:

1.7% ->
(1.7)/(100) -> 0.017

Next plug in the values into the equation:


I=26,000(0.017)(3)


I=1,326

After three years, he must repay $1,326.
