At what rate percent per annum compound interest will ₹2304 amount to ₹2500 in
2 years?
Answers
✫✫
★ Given
P = ₹2304
A = ₹2500
T = 2 years
★ To Find
Rate
As we know,
A = P(1+r/100)^n
⇒ 2500 = 2304 (1 + r/100)²
⇒ 2500/2304 = (100 + r / 100)²
⇒ 625/576 = (100 + r/100)²
⇒ (25/24)² = (100 + r/100)²
⇒ 25/24 = (100 +r)/100
⇒ 25/24 × 100 = 100 + r
⇒ 25/6 × 25 = 100 + r
⇒ 625/6 = 100 + r
⇒ 625-600/6 = r
⇒ 25/6 = r
⇒ 4.166 %

★Question
At what rate percent per annum compound interest will ₹ 2304 amount to ₹2500 in 2 years?
★Answer
Amount (A) = ₹2500
Principal (P) = ₹2304
Time (n) = 2 years
We know that ,
A = P (1 + r/100)ⁿ
We can also write it as ,
(1+r/100)ⁿ = A/P
Substituting the given values ,
(1+r/100)² = 2500/2304
Calculating the value ,
(1+r/100)² = 625/576 = (25/4 )²
Resulting value ,
(1+r/100) 25/24
r/100 = 25/24−1
Taking the LCM ,
r = 100/24
= 25 / 6
= ⑷⅙%
Hence, the required rate of interest is ⑷ ⅙% p.a
