Answer:

Total interest will $1800 after 5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the principle amount is $6000.

Rate of interest rate is 6% per annum.

Total interest is $1800.

Formula for simple interest is

[tex]I=\frac{P\times r\times t}{100}[/tex]

Where, P is principle, r is rate of interest in percent and t is time in years.

Substitute P=6000, r=6 and I=1800 in the above formula.

[tex]1800=\frac{6000\times 6\times t}{100}[/tex]

[tex]1800=\frac{36000t}{100}[/tex]

[tex]1800=360t[/tex]

Divide both sides by 360.

[tex]\frac{1800}{360}=t[/tex]

[tex]5=t[/tex]

Therefore the total interest will $1800 after 5 years.
