anybody ?
OpenStudy (princeharryyy):
use formula for 1 year at rate = 8 then use it for 1/4 year at rate =r then compare to get value of r @mkbwashere

So far i have f=p(1+0.08)^t = (1.08)^t
OpenStudy (princeharryyy):
(1+8/100)^1 = (1+r/100)^1/4
OpenStudy (princeharryyy):
solve to get answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So then (1+r/100)^1/4 = (1+0.08)^1/4 = (1.08)^1/4 = 0.27
OpenStudy (princeharryyy):
nope this isn't that u want to find u need to find the rate at quarter

Will walk me through it?
OpenStudy (princeharryyy):
ohk
OpenStudy (princeharryyy):
for quarterly u do it like this Quarterly = P (1 + r/4)^4 = (quarterly compounding)
OpenStudy (princeharryyy):
and for Annually = P × (1 + r) = (annual compounding)
OpenStudy (princeharryyy):
so u don't actually need to solve the ew rate is just 8/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay
@helpmeplzzzzz!
do you agree? I have no clue how to solve this
OpenStudy (princeharryyy):
for months u solve it this way (1+r/(no. of months))^(number of months) @mkbwashere
