107.5 + 215 (5 + 10 %) = 322.5
3400 / 2 = 2150
2150 + 322.5 = 2472.5
2150 - 322.5 = 1827.5
*check* 2472.5 + 1827.5 = 4300

Man 1: 2472.5
Man 2: 1827.5

what is the least whole number that has the remainders 10,12, and 15 when divided by 16, 18. and 21, respectively
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

1002

Step-by-step explanation:

First find difference between the divisors and remainders.

16-10=6\\18-12=6\\21-15=6

Here, the difference between the divisors and remainders is equal.

So, the required number is equal to LCM of (16,18,21)-6

16=2^4\\18=2(3^2)\\21=3(7)

LCM of (16,18,21)=2^4(3^2)(7)=1008

Required Number =1008-6=1002

Joshua invested $750 in an account paying an interest rate of
Maslowich
Due to the difference in the interest rate and the quarterly compounding, Joshua will have $212.24 more than Josiah.
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Joshua:
Initial investment (PV)= $750
Interest rate (i)= 0.0341/4= 0.008525
Number of periods (n)= 18*4= 72 quarters
Josiah:
Initial investment (PV)= $750
Interest rate (i)= 0.0285
Number of periods (n)= 18 years
To calculate the future value of each one, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1 + i)^n
Joshua:
FV= 750*(1.008525^72)
FV= $1,381.98
Josiah:
FV= 750*(1.0285^18)
FV= $1,169.74
Due to the difference in the interest rate and the quarterly compounding, Joshua will have $212.24 more than Josiah.
