If you would like to know how much money will Gerold have at the end of 5 years, you can calculate this using the following steps:
1 year: $118 + 6% * $118 = 118 + 6/100 * 118 = 118 + 7.08 = $125.08
2 year: $125.08 + 6% * $125.08 = 125.08 + 6/100 * 125.08 = 125.08 + 7.50 = $132.58
3 year: $132.58 + 6% * $132.58 = 132.58 + 6/100 * 132.58 = 132.58 + 7.95 = $140.53
4 year: $140.53 + 6% * $140.53 = 140.53 + 6/100 * 140.53 = 140.53 + 8.43 = $148.96
5 year: $148.96 + 6% * $148.96 = 148.96 + 6/100 * 148.96 = 148.96 + 8.94 = $157.9
The correct result would be $157.9.
Answer:
Step-by-step
The sum must be greater than 1 because
1/2 + 1/2= 2/2 or 1
ex
3/4 + 8/4= 11/4
9/16+15/16=24/16
8/8+9/8=17/8
The answer is two, one over nine⬇️
