You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Use the formula \"A=P%281%2Br%29%5En\", where
\n" ); document.write( "A= Amount = Principle + Interest
\n" ); document.write( "P= Principle which is $2400
\n" ); document.write( "r= rate per period, which is .08/3 since there are 3 periods per year.
\n" ); document.write( "n= number of periods, which is 3.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"A=2400%2A%281%2B.08%2F3%29%5E3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Using a calculator, you should get
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=+2597.17\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now to find the Interest, subtract the Principle.
\n" ); document.write( "I= $2597.17-2400=$197.17\r
