Answer: There is 17.26% percent of increase in the account balance.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount deposited in saving account = $365

After one year,

Amount in saving account = $428

There is increase of


\$428-\$365\\\\=\$63

Rate of increase in the account balance is given by


(63)/(365)* 100\\\\=17.26\%

Hence,there is 17.26% percent of increase in the account balance.
