Here's why: The formula is Interest = Principal x Rate x Time I = 460 x 8% x 5 or I = 460 x 0.08 x 5. PEMDAS 460(0.08) = 36.8 I = 36.8 x 5 36.8 x 5 = 184 I = $184 To find them in all, add the original amount she deposited with the interest. 460 + 184 = 644 In all: $644

make sure you have the same question or you might get it wrong too.
