Answer:

The correct answer is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Your coin collection contains fifty-four 1941 silver dollars. These coins have appreciated at a 10 percent annual rate.

To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

i= 0.10

PV= 54

n= 2060 - 1942= 119

FV= 54*1.10^119= 4,551,172.47
