Answer:

$0.231

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P= $77

r= 16%

t= 6 months= 0.5 years

For simple interest

A= P(1+rt)

A=77(1+0.16*0.5)

A= 77(1+0.08)

A= 77*1.08

A= $83.16

For compound interest

A=P(1+r)^t

A= 77(1+0.16)^0.5

A= 77(1.16)^0.5

A= 77*1.077

A= $82.929

The difference is

=83.16- 82.929

=$0.231
