45899.34

45899.34

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 6, 150$ , $r = 12 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 17$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.03$ , $n t = 68$ , so the growth factor is $7.4633065436$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $6, 150$ × $7.4633065436$ = $45899.34$ .
