Explanation:

Step1: Identify growth formula

This is exponential growth, use $A = P(1+r)^t$
Where $P=32400$, $r=0.05$, $t=8$

Step2: Substitute values into formula

$A = 32400(1+0.05)^8$

Step3: Calculate growth factor

$(1.05)^8 \approx 1.477455$

Step4: Compute final page views

$A = 32400 \times 1.477455 \approx 47869.54$
