After saving for 30 years, Hamilton would have contributed $99,000 and made a total interest of $50,722.57.

Hamilton will indeed have $149,722.57 at the end of 30 years.

Out of this, the amount he would have contributed is:

= Amount contributed per month x Number of months contributed

= 275 x 30 years x 12 months

= $99,000

The amount that would be interest is:

= Total amount accumulated - Amount contributed

= 149,722.57 - 99,000

= $50,722.57

In conclusion, Hamilton would have contributed $99,000 and made $50,722.57 in interest.
