Initial investment) * ( 1 + rate)^(number of times compounded)
this is a very important formula you should carry with you for the rest of your life.
=(3) * ( 1 + 100%=1+1=2)^(4)
=3* 2^4
=3* 2*2*2*2
=48
You could also just figure this out by pretending you have 3 dollars on Monday and pretend it doubles every day
This answer assumes the money has not doubled yet for Friday
