Cody has $1400 in a savings account that earns 4 % annually. How much will he have total after 3 years?

Use the formula = , where is the interest earned, is the principal (starting amount), is the interest rate expressed as a decimal, and is the time in years.

Answer:

$1,574.81

Steps:

  • total after 1 year = (1400/100 × 4) + 1400 = (14 × 4) + 1400 = 56 + 1400 = $1456
  • total after 2 years = (1456/100 × 4) + 1456 = (14.56 × 4) + 1456 = 58.24 + 1456 = $1,514.24
  • total after 3 years = (1,514.24/100 × 4) + 1,514.24 = (15.14 × 4) + 1,514.24 = 60.57 + 1,514.24 = $1,574.81
