Ineed to know how to solve these simple interest word problems step by step. 1. what is the new balance of your account after 8 months if you earn 2.7% on your balance of $13,132? (by the way, i’ve tried .66 and .67 for time and it doesn’t give us our answer apparently : /) 2. last year you earned $273.47 in interest for your online savings account. if your starting balance was $8,546, what was your interest rate?
