    The pennies increase by 3 every day. January 1st you have three, January 2nd you have six, January 3rd you have nine. There are 365 days in a year. Every day there will be three pennies added. 365 times 3 is 1095. You subtract nine pennies from that for the first day. You are left with 1086 pennies. That is the equivalent of $10.86.
