Ezra loaned Christine $1,100 at an annual interest rate of 3%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$1,133
$1,177
$1,166
$1,155

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 $1,100
i = 0.03 x $1,100

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

total = $1,100 + $33
total = $1,133
