Help please with question 3

Investment made in one of the account is $1000 and investment made in other account is $3000.
Further, it is given that interest rate in both the accounts is same and the period for which the amount is invested is also same.
Interest = Principal * Rate * Time /100
So in case of 1st account,
Interest = 1000 * Rate * Time/100
and for the second account,
Interest = 3000* Rate * Time /100
So, comparing above two interest, it is evident that $3000 account will earn three times the amount of interest.
Hope it helps.
Thank you ..!!
Answer:
The option B is the correct answer which is the $3000 account will earn three times more than the $1000 account.
Step-by-step explanation:
The interest rate is amount of interest due per period. and it is in the form of percentage.
For example if the interest rate on both accounts is 10%. Then the total earning from first account will be $300 and earning from the second account will be $100.
Now the earning from account of $3000 is 3 times more than the earning fro the account of $1000.
$300 = 3($100)
Hence proved that the $3000 account will earn three times more than the $1000 account.
