In your working the 101.9 refers to the entire sum at the end (original money plus interest). The 101.9 comes from 100 (original money) plus 1.9 interest.

The question only requires interest, so we only need to use the 1.9 interest figure.

Or continuing from your working,

Final sum after interest = $50950
Starting sum = $50000

Interest earned
= $50950 - $50000
= $950

The answer you wrote included both the interest and original amount. The question asked for just the interest amount for one year.
