Answer:

$1,101.32

Explanation:

Simple interest accounts balances are calculated using the following formula

A = P ( 1 + rt)

where:

A = final account balance

P = starting balance

r = interest rate (annually) percentage divided by 100

t = years

Therefore, we can plug in the values provided in this formula and solve for P which would be the amount that Kremena needs to deposit.

1,250 = P ( 1 + (0.045 * 3))

1,250 = P * 1.135  ... divide both sides by 1.135

1,101.32 = P

Finally, we can see that Kremena would need to deposit a total of $1,101.32 to have the amount that she wants after 3 years.
