Aril donated 150 kr the first month, and the cumulative number of Norwegian kroners she has donated increases by a factor of 2.5 each month. Dita donated 300 kr the first month, and the cumulative number of Norwegian kroners she has donated increases by 400 kro each month.

Answer 2

1st month- A:150kr. D:300kr
2nd month- A: 150kr+150kr*2.5=375kr. D:300kr+400kr=700kr.
3rd month- A: 375kr+375kr*2.5=937.5kr. D:700kr+400kr=1100kr.
4th month- A:937.5kr+937.5kr*2.5=2343.75kr. D:1100kr+400kr=1500kr.

April's cumulative donation will after 4 months first exceed Dita's cumulative donation.
