    a. The percentage increase per year in the winner's check over this period was 7,73%

    b. The winners prize at 2046 will be $12,975,215,98

    Explanation:

    a.

    /sqrt[ (2016-1895) ]{ (1390000/170) }

    /sqrt[121]{8176,47}

    0.0772965

    b.

    FC=IC * (1+0,0773) ^{30}

    FC=1,390,000 * (1+0,0773) ^{30}
