Explanation / Answer

Hi,
Compound interest formula is given by
A=P(1+r/n)nt where r is the interest rate, A is the future amount, P is principal and n is number of times interest compounded per year
5. given P=480, A=620
n=12 and t=2years 4 months i.e 2.16 years
i.e 620=480(1+r/12)12*2.16  
1.291=(1+r/12)25.6
i.e r ~ 12% annually
