Answer:
2 5/9 is less than 21/3; 2 5/9 < 21/3
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Convert 2 5/9 into an improper fraction</u>
2 5/9 = 2 * 9/9 + 5/9 = 18/9 + 5/9 = 23/9
<u>Step 2: Convert 21/3 so the denominator is 9</u>
21*3 / 3*3 = 63/9

Answer: 2 5/9 is less than 21/3; 2 5/9 < 21/3
I use a bit of a different looking formula.
A(t)=P(1+r/n)^nt
P=amount of money. (500)
r= rate (in decimal. 4%=0.04)
n=number of times per year (1 in this problem)
t=amount of time. (5 years)
Plugged in it looks like this:
A(t)=500 (1+ 0.04/1)^1x5
Then I put it into my calculator like this:
0.04/1+ 0.04
Then add one to the above answer:
0.04+1=1.04
Then raise the above answer to the 1x5:
1.04^5=1.2166......
Then multiply the above answer by 500:
1.2166.... x 500=608.3264512
She has $608 after 5 years.
Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
