To calculate the amount of interest Sam will earn, we can use the formula for simple interest:
Interest = Principal x Rate x Time
Where:
Principal = $6,500
Rate = 4.3% = 0.043
Time = 4 years
Plugging in the values:
Interest = $6,500 x 0.043 x 4
Interest = $6,500 x 0.172
Interest = $1,118
Sam will earn $1,118 in interest over 4 years.
