The job that would give you more is the one where you double the penny everyday. Although it seems small at first but slowly slowly you start making a lot more money.
To calculate how much you would make in 30 days by doubling the penny, you just double the amount every day until you get to 30: $.01 - First day $.02 $.04 $.08 $.16 - Fifth day $.32 $.64 $1.28 <span>$2.56 - Ninth day </span>.... <span>$5,368,709.12 - 30th day </span> If you add it all up, the sum you would get is <span>$10,737,418.23.
That is 11 times more than the first option! :)

Number of periods would be is 30 days. Or 1 month. And this is a good example of compund interest.
<span>First, we need to know that the current recommended daily allowance of Vitamin E is 15 milligrams. If Leena ate four tablespoons of peanut butter, thus receiving only 6 milligrams, then we can determine the percentage by first dividing 100 into 15 parts (which gives us 6.66), and then multiply that answer by 6 (6 x 6.66), which gives us precisely 40. Thus, the answer is 40 percent.</span>
