Answer:

$3762.50

Step-by-step explanation:

From the problem, we can see our initial loan is 3500. On the return date, the interest of the loan is collected 7.5%. To find out how much the man paid for the loan, we need to find out how much he paid in interest, which is the percentage of the interest converted to a decimal x the initial loan. We get $262.5, and then we need to pay back the interest plus the initial loan we borrowed from the bank, so we need to add those together to get:

$3762.50
