Answer:
$1,220,200
Step-by-step explanation:
The total of Mary's payments is ...
$3695.20/mo × 30 yr × 12 mo/yr = $1,330,200
The difference between this repayment amount and the value of her loan is the interest she pays:
$1,330,200 -110,000 = $1,220,200 . . . total interest paid

Mary's effective interest rate is about 40.31% per year--exorbitant by any standard.
