Answer:

$1667.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for <em>simple interest</em> is

I = Prt

Data:

P = $12 350

r = 4.5 %

t = 36 mo

Calculations:

(a) Convert months to years

t = 36 mo × (1 yr/12 mo) = 3 yr

(b) Calculate the interest

I = 12 350 x 0.0450 × 3 = $1667.25

Sophia will earn $1667.25 after three years at 4.5 % annual simple interest.
