You just won the lottery! You now have $25,000! You make a smart decision and invest all $25,000 to earn interest on it over the next 10 years.

2) What is the difference in the principal invested for banks that yielded the highest and lowest interests from Question 1? What is the difference in the interest earned for the banks from Question 1?
3) Which bank would you invest your $25,000? WHY?
