To calculate the percentage of a quantity you need to multiply the percentage times the quantity, keep in mind that a percentage is a ratio of a number over 100, so we have:
18% = 18 out of a 100 = 18/100
and we propose the multiplication:
(18%)($3500) = (18/100)<span>($3500)
</span>= 18*3500/100
= 630
therefore, 18% of $3500 is $630, so they spent $630 on food

IrinaVladis [17]
Use compound interest formula  F=P(1+i)^n twice, one for each deposit and sum the two results.

For the P=$40,000 deposit,
i=10%/2=5%  (semi-annual)
number of periods (6 months), n = 6*2 = 12
Future value (at end of year 6),
F = P(1+i)^n = 40,000(1+0.05)^12 = $71834.253

For the P=20000, deposited at the START of the fourth year, which is the same as the end of the third year.
i=5% (semi-annual
n=2*(6-3), n = 6 
Future value (at end of year 6)
F=P(1+i)^n = 20000(1+0.05)^6 = 26801.913

Total amount after 6 years
= 71834.253 + 26801.913
=98636.17   (to the nearest cent.)
