The amount of interest earned on a savings account varies directly with the amount of money saved. If $208 in interest is earned on $6,500 of savings, how much interest will be earned on $8,000 of savings over the same time period? $224 $240 $256 $272

Respuesta :

The interest amount goes up by the same factor as the savings amount.
.. interest = 208*(8000/6500) = 256

The 3rd selection is appropriate.
