Question

If the amount for 2years at 6% is 4000, what was the principal?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

formula=ptr/100

let the principal be x

4000=x*2*6%/100

=x*3/25

4000*25=3x

100000=3x

x=100000/3

33,333.33.....

therefore principal is 33,333.33/-

Answer 2

S.I. = Principal×Time×Rate 100 Principal×Time×Rate 100 = Rs.(4000×2×5100)(4000×2×5100) Therefore, Amount received = S.I. + Principal = Rs. (4000+400)(4000+400) = Rs.4400.
