Answer:

Interest = $1.75

Explanation:

Maria invest $600, and receives interest of $30 per year

We know that PRT/100= INTEREST

R=( 100*INTEREST)/(PT)

R = (100*30)/(600*1)

R= 3000/600

R= 5%

Jane invest $350 at Sam rate with Maria , that is 5% , for a year, her interest

Interest= 350*5*1/100

Interest = $1.75
