Answer 1

To find how much interest did he earn:

`\begin{gathered} i=(r)/(m) \\ \text{where, r= the interest rate per year} \\ m=number\text{ of compounding periods per year} \\ i=(6*12)/(12)=6 \\ \text{After 8 years:} \\ 6\cdot8=48\text{ percent} \end{gathered}`

He earns 48% percent interest after 8 years.
