Question

Find tje difference between simple and compound interest on rs 6000 for 1 year at 20% per but interest is calculated on half yearly basis

Answer 1

Explanation:

It is an easy and quick method of calculating an interest charge on a loan. Simple interest (S.I.) is determined by multiplying the principal (P) with rate of interest (R) and time period (T).

S.I.= \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}

Example: Henry borrowed Rs. 5000 for 4 years at an interest rate of 5% from a bank. How much of interest is that?

We know,

S.I.=\dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}

Here P= Rs. 5000, R= 5%, T= 4 years

So,

I=\dfrac{5000 \times 5 \times 4}{100}=Rs. 1000

Ans: Henry has to pay Rs. 1000 as interest
