Answer:

In 27 years, there will be at least 2,000 in the account.

Explanation:

First you need to change your precent to a decimal, you can do that by dividing by 100:

5% ÷ 100 = 0.05

Then multiply your ammount ($1500 ) by your time (27years) by your decimal (0.05) :

$1,500 × 27 × 0.05 = $2,025

Then there is your answer! Hope this helped you! <3
