Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]M_0=initial \money\\M_f=final\money\\i=interest[/tex]

Compounded Continuously interest means that you gain interests all the time and furthermore, your interests generate more interests, because they are adding to the total savings.

To calculate this, just use the next formula:

[tex]M_t = M_0e^{it}[/tex]

Where

[tex]M_t=Money \ at \ a\ given \ time\\t=time[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]M_0 = \frac{M_t}{e^{it}}[/tex]
