A loan of $3,000 is taken at 6 percent simple interest for 3 years. What total amount is repaid?

Correct answer to question 96 (Arithmetic Reasoning): $3,540

Method

The interest is 3,000 x 0.06 x 3 = $540, and the question asks for the total repaid, so add the principal to get $3,540. Answering $540 gives the interest alone.
