The document compares the interest gained from two different initial amounts over time. It shows that an initial amount of $1000 earned $264.91 in interest, while $1264.91 earned $347.54 in interest. The second amount of interest earned is greater because the initial amount it was gaining interest from was larger.

Interest gained = 1264.91 - 1000 = 264.91 (b) 1000 Interest gained = 1612.45 - 1264.91 = 347.54 (b) is greater than (a) because the initial amount we are gaining interest from is larger in (b) than it is compared to (a)
