Asked by maham237 @ in Mathematics viewed by 279 People


4% interest compounded continuously, how long will it take the account to grow to 2,000?

Answered by maham237 @



You will need to use this formula:
Years = natural logarithm (Total / Principal) / rate
Years = natural logarithm (2,000 / 1,000) / rate
Years = natural logarithm (2) / .04
Years = 0.69314718056 / .04
Years = 17.328679514




About 17.3 years
