How much do you want to save each month? 90 Month 1: $0 deposited 90 interest earned is 0.9 Month 2: $90.9 deposited 90 interest earned is 1.809 Month 3: $182.709 deposited 90 interest earned is 2.72709 Month 4: $275.436 deposited 90 interest earned is 3.65436 Month 5: $369.09 deposited 90 interest earned is 4.5909 Month 6: $463.681 deposited 90 interest earned is 5.53681 Month 7: $559.218 deposited 90 interest earned is 6.49218 Month 8: $655.71 deposited 90 interest earned is 7.4571 Month 9: $753.167 deposited 90 interest earned is 8.43167 Month 10: $851.599 deposited 90 interest earned is 9.41599 Month 11: $951.015 deposited 90 interest earned is 10.4102 It took 11 months, and you now have $1051.43

Explanation / Answer

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
float monthlysaving;
float interest=0;
float totalsave=0;
int monthcount=0;
float p=0;
cout <<"How much do you want to save each month? " ;
cin>>monthlysaving;

//totalsave <1000
while( totalsave<1000)
{
monthcount=monthcount+1;

p=totalsave + monthlysaving;

interest=p/100;

cout<<"Month "<<monthcount<<": $"<<totalsave<<" deposited "<<monthlysaving<<" interest earned is "<<interest<<endl;
totalsave=p+interest;

}

cout<<"It took "<<monthcount<<" months, and you now have $ "<<totalsave;
return 0;
}
