26.388 is the correct answer
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
5(4) over 6(4) makes more sense than the others do
Ted:
4,000 @ 4.5% interest compounded annually
Alan:
1,000 @ 6% interest compounded annually
Rule of 72: divide 72 by the compound annual interest rate
Ted: 72/4.5% = 16 years
Alan: 72/6% = 12 years
<span>Alan will win. It will take 12 years.</span>
