Answer:

$900

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 3%/100 = 0.03 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 5000 × 0.03 × 6 = 900

I = $ 900.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 5,000.00

at a rate of 3% per year

for 6 years is $ 900.00.
