To be able to know which option Tabitha should choose to end up with the largest balance, she needs to know the interest of each option. The formula in computing the simple interest is:

I = Prt

Where P = principal mount

            r = simple interest rate

            t = time in years

Choice A:

I = $1,000 x 8% x 2 = $160

Choice B:

I = $1,000 x 6% x 18/12 = $90

Choice C:

I = $1,000 x 7% x 3 = $210

Choice D:

I = $1,000 x 10% x 6/12 = $50
