Answer:

231,525

220,500 if you're not adding on the 2017

Explanation:

2015

200000÷100=2000 (1%)

2000x5=10000

200000+10000=210000

2016

210000÷100=2100

2100x5=10500

210000+10500=220500

2017

220500÷100=2205

2205×5=11025

220500+11025=231525

I don't know if you're meant to add on the 2017 5% or not
