Hi, now we are going to find the interest earned by diana and henry for first 3 years.
00:08
So now here the given deposit of diana is $60 ,000 into the account that pays 3 % interest per year so this will be 0 .03.
00:22
Here the interest was compounded annually.
00:25
So we know that the formula for calculating the compound interest is a is equal to p into 1 plus or the whole power t and the compound interest will be equal to a minus p.
00:39
So now for the first year the amount in the account will be equal to 60 ,000 into 1 plus 0 .03 the whole power 1 and this will be equal to $61 ,800.
00:58
Then the compound interest for the first year will be equal to 61 ,800 minus 60 ,000 and this will be equal to $1 ,800.
01:14
And next we are going to find the compound interest for second year.
01:19
The amount in the account after 2 years will be 60 ,000 into 1 plus 0 .03 the whole square and this will be equal to $63 ,654.
01:34
Then the compound interest for second year will be equal to 63 ,654 minus 61 ,800 and this will be equal to $1 ,854.
01:50
And next we are going to calculate the compound interest for the third year.
01:57
Now the amount in the account after 3 years will be 60 ,000 into 1 plus 0 .03 the whole power 3 and this will be equal to 65 ,563 .62.
02:12
Then the compound interest for third year will be equal to 65 ,563 .62 minus 63 ,654 and this will be equal to $1 ,909 .62...
