Answer:

To solve this question, you must first add together the two halves of the ratio i.e. 4 + 2 = 6. Then you need to divide the total amount using that number i.e. 600/6 = 100. To work out how much each person gets, you then multiply their share by 100.

How to Calculate Ratios of 3 Numbers

Step 1: Find the total number of parts in the ratio by adding the numbers in the ratio together.
Step 2: Find the value of each part in the ratio by dividing the given amount by the total number of parts.
Step 3: Multiply the original ratio by the value of each part.

What is the balance after 15 years in a savings account that earns 2% interest compounded bimonthly when the initial deposit is

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

$1348.07

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

<h3>Compound Interest Formula: $A = P(1 + \frac rn)^{nt}$ </h3>

A = Account Balance
P = Principle/Initial Amount
r = Rate of Interest (decimal)
n = Number of times compounded (per year)
t = Number of Years

<h3>Given Information</h3>

Account Balance = ?
Principle Amount = $1000
Rate of Interest = 0.02

Why is the Rate 0.02?

This is because we are gaining money, so the multiplier should be greater than 1. We already added 1, which is 100% so you simply add the 0.02 for the extra 2%.

Number of times compounded per year = 6

This is because it is being compounded bi-monthly, or once every 2 months. 12 months divided by 2 months is 6 months, so 6 times a year.

Number of years = 15

<h2>Solve </h2>

Solve by plugging in the given values into the formula.

$A = P(1 + \frac rn)^{nt}$
$A = 1000(1 + \frac {0.02}{6})^{6*15}$
$A = 1000(1 + 0.00333...)^{90}$
$A = 1000(1.00333...)^{90}$
$A = 1000(1.145743)$
$A \approx 1457.43$

This is really close to the first option, and since there is rounding involved with the repeating decimal, the first option should be correct.

The answer is $1348.07.
