    We will use this formula to compute for the total money in his savings

    F = (1+it)

    where

    P = present amount;

    Present amount = monthly interest x 12

    Present Amount = $79.15x 12

    =$949.8

    i = interest rate = 2%

    t = time in years = 1 year

    F = $949.8[1+[ (.02x12) x1]]

    F=$968.8

    The answer would be letter b.$968.80

    Byron's total savings would be $968.80.
