At 10 percent interest, how long does it take to quadruple your money?

horsena [70]

It takes about 14.55 years for quadruple your money

Solution:

Given that,

At 10 percent interest, how long does it take to quadruple your money

Rule of 144:

The Rule of 144 will tell you how long it will take an investment to quadruple

Here,

Rate of interest = 10 %

Therefore, number of years to quadruple your money is obtained by dividing 144 by 10

Rule of 144 Formula:

$N = \frac{144}{R}$

Where:

N = Number of many years times.

144 = Is the constant variable.

R = Rate of interest.

$\rightarrow N = \frac{144}{10} = 14.4$

Thus it takes about 14.4 years for quadruple your money.

Another method:

If initial amount is $ 1 and it if quadruples it should be $ 4

We have to find the number of years if rate of interest is 10 %

Let "n" be the number of years

Then we can say,

$Amount = Principal(1+\frac{R}{100})^n$

$4 = 1(1+\frac{10}{100})^n$

$4 = 1(1+0.1)^n\\\\4= 1(1.1)^n\\\\4 = 1.1^n\\\\We\ know\ that,\\\\(1.1)^{14.55} = 1.1^n\\\\We\ know\ that\\\\If\ a^m = a^n\ then\ m = n\\\\Therefore,\\\\14.55 = n\\\\n = 14.55$

Thus Option D 14.55 years is correct

tyra has 12 2/3 cups of sugar. if r is the amount of sugar needed for one batch of cookies, the expression 12 2/3 ÷ r can be use

olga nikolaevna [1]

ANSWER

She can make 19 batches of oatmeal.

EXPLANATION

First we can change the mixed number into an improper fraction:

$12\frac{2}{3}=12+\frac{2}{3}=\frac{12\cdot3}{3}+\frac{2}{3}=\frac{36}{3}+\frac{2}{3}=\frac{38}{3}$

In this problem, r = 2/3. The division is:

$12\frac{2}{3}\div r=\frac{38}{3}\div\frac{2}{3}$

Using the KFC rule:

$\frac{38}{3}\div\frac{2}{3}=\frac{38}{3}\times\frac{3}{2}$

Solving we can see that the denominator of the first fraction can be simpliied with the numerator of the second fraction:

$\frac{38}{3}\times\frac{3}{2}=\frac{38}{1}\times\frac{1}{2}=\frac{38}{2}=19$

Tyra can make 19 batches of oatmeal with 12 2/3 cups of sugar.
