So your Answer would be $62,318 (without any cents) If you need the cents i made a arrow on the One. Hope this helps :D
Use the formula PRT (principal x rate x time.) the principal is 40,000 times the rate 0.03 (3% in its decimal form.) is 1200 times the time 16(years) = 19200+40000= 59200. 59200 is the total amount of money you will earn after 16 years with a 3% interest rate. Sorry if I didn’t explain this very well.
