Answer:

2.0625

Step-by-step explanation:

Therefore he gain after 1\frac121

1

years is Rs 2.0625.

Explanation:

Compound interest formula:

A=P(1+r)^tA=P(1+r)

t

A= Amount after n years

P=Initial amount

r= Rate of interest

t= time.

Given that, a person borrow a sum Rs 2048 at 6\frac{1}{4}6

1

% per annum, compounded annually for 1\frac121

2

1

years.

Here P= Rs 2048 , r= 6\frac{1}{4}6

1

% =0.0625

Since 1\frac121

2

1

is not an integer. So, first we have find out the interest for 1 year. Then we need to find out the interest for \frac12

1

.

Simple interest for the first year interest = Compound interest for the first year interest.

The interest for 1 year is =Prt=Prt

=2048×0.0625×1

=Rs 128.

Now Principal for \frac12

2

1

year is = Rs(2048+128)

=Rs 2176

The interest for \frac12

2

1

year is =Prt=Prt

=2176 \times 0.625\times \frac12=2176×0.625×

1

=Rs 68.

Therefore total amount that he will pay after 1\frac121

2

1

years is = Rs (2176+68) = Rs 2244.

Again given that on the same day he lent out his money to another person same rate of interest but compounded semiannually.

Formula for semi annually compound interest:

A=P(1+\frac rn)^{nt}A=P(1+

n

r

A= Amount after n years

P=Initial amount

r= Rate of interest

t= time.

Here P= Rs 2048 , r= 6\frac{1}{4}6

% =0.0625, t=1\frac12=\frac32t=1

years, n=2[ semi annually]

A= 2048(1+\frac {0.0625}{2})^{\frac32 \times 2}A=2048(1+

×2

=2048(1.03125)^3=2048(1.03125)

=Rs 2246.0625

Therefore he gain after 1\frac121

1

years is Rs(2246.0625-2244)=Rs 2.0625
