Answer:

$365.70

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find this is $y = a(1+r)^t\\$

For this, a is the initial amount, r is the growth rate percentage (but displayed as a decimal), and t is time.

So to solve, you would do

$y = 300(1+0.02)^10\\y = 300(1.02)^10\\y = 365.698325998\\OR\\y = $365.7 in interest$
