Simple interest is a method to calculate the amount of interest which is applied on the principal amount, rate for a given time intereval.

SI = P × R × T/100

The principal amount is given as $3,500, rate is 5% and time period is 15 years.

SI = P × R × T/100

SI = $3,500 × 5 × 15  /100

SI = $2625

Since, the total value of the amount of interest = $2625 + $3,500

                                                                              = $6125
