The person that saves the most money every month is given as Jerry

<h3>How to solve for the savings</h3>

We have to solve for 35 percent of 5 dollars

= 0.35 * 45

= 1.75

This is the amount that Tom saves

The question tells us that Jerry spends 2/5 of his, hence he would save 2/5

then we have 2/5 * 5

= 2

Therefore we have that Jerry is the one that saves the most money because he saves 2 dollars.

Complete question

Tom and Jerry both earn the same monthly salary.

Each month

Tom saves 35% of his salary.

Jerry spends 3/5

of his salary and saves the rest of his salary.

Work out who saves the most money each month.

You must show your working.

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Amount she would have in 2 years at a simple interest of is

$5000 + ($5000 x 0.048 x 2) = $5480

Amount she would have in 2 years at a 4.1 % / year compounded semi- annually is :

$5000 x ( 1 +0.041/2)^4 = $5422.78

the first option yields a higher value in two years when compared with the second option. Thus, the first option is the best one to choose

Step-by-step explanation:

Future value with simple interest = principal + interest

Interest = principal x interest rate x time

0.048 x 5000 x 2 = 480

future value = $480 + 5000 = $5480

The formula for calculating future value with compounding:

FV = P (1 + r)^nm

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

m = number of compounding

N = number of years

5000 x ( 1 + 0.041 / 2)^(2 x 2) = $5422.78
