Answer 2

Leif makes $47880 in interest.

Explanation:

Given: Interest rate (r) = 26,100%

r =
`(26600)/(100) = 266`

Principle (p) = $180

time (t) = 1

Now we have to find the simple interest. The simple interest formula is I=prt

Plugging in the given values, we get

I = 180×266×1

I = $47880

So Leif makes $47880 in interest.
