It could 1 x 54, 2 x 27, 3 x 18, or 6 x 9
Dont ask me why...I cant really explain it...but if u have 1 repeating decimal, u put it over 9. If u have 2 repeating decimals, u put it over 99....3 repeating decimals, put it over 999.
Examples :
0.7 (repeating) = 7/9
0.27 (repeating) = 27/99 when simplified = 3/11 <===
0.444 (repeating = 444/999
The basic equation for interest is the investment amount(x) times the time in years(y) times the percent of interest(z).
That makes the equation:
x·y·z= amount with interest.
Lets plug in the numbers:
$900 x 1.5 x 2.4%
Now turn the percent into a decimal:
2.4% ----> .024
Now the equation is:
$900 x 1.5 x .024
Now do the math:
$900 x 1.5 = 1350
1350 x .024 = 32.4
1350 + 32.4 = 1382.4
The final answer is $1382.40
Hope this helps!
