Answer:

288

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simplify the fraction 3/18 to 1/6, this will help a lot. Then, you just, find the LCM, and you can list out the mutliples to help you

6, 12, 18, 24, 39, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60

16, 32, 48, 64, 80

It would be easiest to do 48

But that's not exactly what the question is asking

It's asking the LCM of 1/16 and 3/18

I wanted to show you the other way so you would be able to think of it in a different way which would be easier

You would just list out the multiples again.  

18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, 126, 135, 153, 171, 189

16, 32, 48, 64, 80, 96, 112, 130, 146, 162, 178, 194

Ok, I give up on that

Let's just do 16*18 which is 288.

288 is your LCM

Sometimes multiplying is easier and other times listing it out is easier.

I hope this helped

Let me know if you have any questions

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The total compound interest is $3,488.50, I hope I helped explain how to find total compound interest

Step-by-step explanation:

So the formula for this would be:

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = the amount of your principal plus interest, which is the total

P = stands for the principal, which is your original amount invested

r = shows the interest rate in decimal form

n =  stands for the number of compounding periods

So to solve for the compound interest we would plug in our numbers in replacement for the letters
