It will take 13 years and 66 days

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Your savings account earns 1.72% interest.

Present value = $3,000

Final value = $3,756

To calculate the number of years, we need to use the following formula:

n = ln (FV/PV) / ln (1+i)

n = ln (3,756/3,000) / ln (1.0172)

n = 13.18 years

To be more specific = 365*0.18 = 66

It will take 13 years and 66 days
