Bob loaned April $600 at an annual interest rate of 7%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$630
$642
$636
$612

Solution

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

interest = annual interest rate x loan amount

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $600
i = 0.07 x $600

No payments were made so the total amount due is the original amount + the accumulated interest:

total = $600 + $42
total = $642
