1. Since 24 is the total and 3 is the part, if we divide 3 by 24, then multiply the quotient by 100, you should get the percentage.
3/24 = 0.125
0.125 x 100 = 12.5 (%)
2. I don't exactly remember l=prt, but let me try.
A 6% increase is the same thing as 106% of the original number. (100% is whole, and a 6% increase from that.)
So, 6% increase from $500 (since the deposit was kept only for 1 year), would be 106% of $500...
500 x 1.06 = $530
Hope it helped :)
p.s. If you could remind me what l = prt is, I will add it in my description, I mean, if you want to :)

3/24=.125 move the decimal over 2 and its 12.5%
x/500=.06 solve for x and get $30
30+500=$530
