So do .05x3200=160
160x4=640
3200+640=3840

The total amount paid = $3840

What is simple interest formula?

"A = P(1 + rt)

Where A = Total Amount (principal + interest)

P = Principal Amount

I = Interest Amount

r = Rate of Interest in decimal

R = Rate of Interest as a percent

[tex]r=\frac{R}{100}[/tex]

t = Time Period"

For given question,

P = $3200

t = 4 years

R = 5%

[tex]\Rightarrow r=\frac{5}{100}\\\\ \Rightarrow r=0.05[/tex]

Using the formula of simple interest,

[tex]A=P(1+rt)\\\\A=3200(1+(0.05\times 4))\\\\A=3200(1+0.2)\\\\A=3200\times 1.2\\\\A=\$ 3840[/tex]

Therefore, the total amount paid = $3840
