Answer:
64.8% of elephants were killed for ivory
Step-by-step explanation:
divide the number of elephants killed for ivory by the total number of elephants killed: 186÷287= 0.6780
multiply your answer by 100 to get a percentage: 0.6780 x 100= 67.8%
This is a compound interest problem so you cannot use the simple interest formula. Effectively the total amount is being compounded each year by 6%. There is a formula for compound interest but in this simple example you can work this out recursively.
year 1 = 6500
year2 = 6500*1.06 = 6890
year3 = 6890*1.06 = 7303
year4 = 7303*1.06 = 7741..
etc......
year12 = 11604*1.06 = 12338
I say its 11. Since the distance between the two points is 11.
