Answer 1

Given :-

• Principal = Rs.40000
• Amount = Rs.46305
• Time = (3/2) years.
• Rate = compounded half yearly .

To Find :-

• The rate of interest per annum. ?

Solution :-

we know that, when interest is compounded half yearly ,

• Rate becomes half .
• Time becomes double.

so,

• Time = (3/2) * 2 = 3 years.
• Rate = Let half yearly is R% .

then,

→ P[1 + (R/100)]^T = A

→ 40000[1 + (R/100)]³ = 46305

→ [1 + (R/100)]³ = 46305/40000

→ [1 + (R/100)]³ = 9261/8000

→ [1 + (R/100)]³ = (21/20)³

cube root both sides,

→ 1 + (R/100) = (21/20)

→ (R/100) = (21/20) - 1

→ (R/100) = (21 - 20)/20

→ (R/100) = (1/20)

→ R = 5% .

therefore,

→ The rate of interest per annum = 5 * 2 = 10% (Ans.)
