Answer:

  • interest: $144
  • principal plus interest: $944

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of interest is found using the simple interest formula. That is added to the principal to find the total account balance.

__

Interest

  I = Prt . . . . . P = principal, r = annual rate, t = number of years

  I = $800·0.06·3 = $144

The simple interest earned in 3 years is $144.

__

Principal plus interest

Adding that to the principal gives ...

  $800 +144 = $944

The total principal plus interest is $944.
