    Interest is the return earned on an investment.

    I = P * r * t

    I - interest (I = $400),

    P - principal (P = $36,000),

    r - rate (r = 3$ = 0.03).

    400 = 36,000 * 0.03 * t

    400 = 1,080 t

    t = 400 : 1,080 = 0.37 years.

    0.37 * 365 = 135.05 ≈ 135 days

    Answer: The time is 0.37 years or 135 days.
