Respuesta :

Answer:

£2,744.20

Explanation:

savings amounts after 3 years can be calculated using the formula below.

A = P x ( 1 + r) ^ n

Where A is the amount after three years

P = principal amounts:  £2337

r: interest rate: 5.5% or  0.055

n is the number of periods: 3 years

A =£2337 x( 1 + 0.055)^3

A =£2337 x(1.055) ^3

A=£2337 x 1.174241

£2,744.20

Amount after 3 years will be £2744.20
