Answer:

Total amount (A) = $3,955

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial deposit (P) = $3,500

Rate of interest  (r) = 3.25%

Number of years (t) = 4

Find:

Total amount (A)

Computation:

Simple interest = (p)(r)(t)

Simple interest =  (3,500)(3.25)(4)

Simple Interest = $455

Total amount (A) = Initial deposit (P) + Simple Interest

Total amount (A) = 3,500 + 455

Total amount (A) = $3,955
