The general formula is

where P = principal that becomes amount = A in 't' years at the rate I% compound interest per annum.
Here I = 6% per year and time t = 2 years.
Put P = 7800, I = 6 and t = 2 in the formula.
You get

=
= 7800 x 1.1236
= 8764.08

Thus, $7800 becomes $8764.08 after 2 yrs. at the rate 6% compound interest per annum.
