A factory increases the production of cars annually by 5%. If presently it manufactures 610, 000 cars per year, how many cars will it manufacture per year after 3 years
----
start: 610,000
after 1 year: 1.05*610,000
after 2 yrs: 1.05^2*610,000
after 3 yrs: 1.05^3*610,000 = 706151.25 cars
Round down to 706,151
