Answer:

To divide by a decimal, multiply the divisor by a power of ten to make the divisor a whole number. Then multiply the dividend by the same power of ten. You can think of this as moving the decimal point in the dividend the same number of places to the right as you move the decimal point in the divisor

A 68-year old retiree has a pension savings of $43,000, a 401k of $75,000, and an IRA account of $62,000. Before 2008, he had 2%

Natalija [7]

Answer:

The answer is the IRA

Step-by-step explanation:

If he takes out 2% from each account, the highest penalty will be for the IRA account which is, 6% of 62,000 is $3,720. He will also take 2% of that 62,000 which will be $1,240. The total will be $4,960.

For the 401k account the withdrawal is $1,500 and the penalty is $3,000. That is $460 less than the IRA account.
