    18000 dollars invested with 5% interest.

    => 18 000 dollars * 0.05 = 900 dollars for annual interest rate.

    Now, how much interest will he be earning in 3 years?

    => first year = 18 900 dollars *.05 = 945 dollars for the 2nd year

    => 2nd year = 18 900 dollars + 945 = 19 845 dollars

    19845 *.05 = 992.25

    => 3rd years = 19845 + 992.25 = 20837.25 total amount he will get back.

    For interest = 900 + 945 + 992.25 = $2837.25
