Answer by rfer(16322) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If the total interest is $2845.80 total and the interest per year is 1800x0.093=167.40
2845.80/167.40=17 yrs.
If the total interest is 2845.80-1800=1045.80
then 1045.80/167.40=6.25 yrs
Your answer does not fit your question.
