Answer:

a $741.60

Step-by-step explanation:

720 × 1.03( add the one on so we can make it a one step problem) = 741.6, meaning, the answer is a $741.60

Answer:

A: $741.60

Step-by-step explanation:

If the account earns 1% interest, then we will do the following:

[YEAR 1] $720 x 1.01 = $727.2

[YEAR 2] $727.2 x 1.01 = $734.5

[YEAR 3] $743.5 x 1.01 = $741.60

Final Answer: $741.60
