Four years ago or four years later ?

Use the words according to their meaning.

Revise your post and re-post the revised form to the forum, again.

Hello, as I tried to explain you softly, wording in your post is gibberish.

But after addition made by @josgarithmetic, it is just OVERFLOW of gibberish.

What is written in the post by @josgarithmetic - - - is NONSENSE.

            You better cover your eyes with duct tape in order for do not see
                          his writing - - - or ignore it, for your safety.

After my notice, @gosgarithmetic changed his post and re-wrote it,
but it did not make it better.

If you are newcomer at this forum, you should know that @josgarithmetic's
major contribution to this forum is writing incorrect solutions
practically every day (that are then a subject of correction by other tutors).

If you are not a newcomer and are with the forum at least several months,
you know this truth even without my explanations . . .

So be very careful with his posts . . . the probability is from 50% to 90%
that they are wrong.

Sounds like this should be: Four years ~~ago After~~ after opening an account that paid simple interest of 6.75% annually,
a depositor withdrew $3,780 in interest earned. How much money was left in this account

Invested amount/Principal or
If after 4 years, earned interest of $3,780 was withdrawn. It's quite OBVIOUS what would be left in the account!
Think aboout it!
================================
**BTW: He's WRONG! It's NOT $10,220.
Then again, most times he is. You should think about this, and APPLY sheer common sense to determine the TRUE remaining account balance!
