$1,950 at 11.25% annual simple interest for 13 years?

To calculate the simple interest on a principal amount of $1,950 at an annual interest rate of 11.25% for 13 years, you can use the simple interest formula:

\[
\text{Simple Interest} = \text{Principal} \times \text{Rate} \times \text{Time}
\]

Where:
- Principal ($P$) = $1,950
- Rate ($R$) = 11.25% or 0.1125 (as a decimal)
- Time ($T$) = 13 years

Let's calculate:

\[
\text{Simple Interest} = 1950 \times 0.1125 \times 13
\]

Now, let's compute that.

\[
\text{Simple Interest} = 1950 \times 0.1125 \times 13 = 2853.75
\]

So, the simple interest earned over 13 years is $2,853.75.

### Total Amount after 13 years:
To find the total amount after 13 years, add the simple interest to the principal:

\[
\text{Total Amount} = \text{Principal} + \text{Simple Interest} = 1950 + 2853.75 = 4803.75
\]

So, the total amount after 13 years will be $4,803.75.
