Answer 1

This might not be right but this is what i did

1,821,000*.2*.2*.2*.2*.2=582.72

if thats not right then report me

jk if its not right i will try to fix it

Answer 2

that would be 1,821,000(1 - 0.002)^5 = 1.802,862 answer

(Note 2% = 0.002 as a decimal fraction.)

If you round it, it will be 1,802,863
