Question

A sum of money lent at 8%CI. If the interest for the second year exceeds that for the first yr by rupees 96,find the sum

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1st year p=rupees x .Rate=8% Time =1year

interest =x*8*1/100

=0.08x

and amount =x+0.08x=1.08x

For 2nd year P=1.08x rupees Rate=8% Time= 1 year

Interest =1.08x*8*1/100

=0.0864x

Amount =1.08x+0.0864x

=1.8864 x

0.0864x-0.08x=96

x=15000
