Question

If the difference between compound interest and simple interest on certain sum of money for 3 years at 5% per annum is ₹122, find the sum.​

Answer 1

x be the Principal.

CI = P * (1 + R/100)^N - P where CI is Compound Interest, P is Pincipal, R is rate of Interest & N is No. of years.

And SI = PNR/100 where SI is Simple Interest & all other terms are same as above.

x * (1 + 5/100)^3 - x - x * 3 * 5/100 = 122

i.e. x * 1.05^3 - x - 0.15x = 122

i.e. 1.157625x - x - 0.15x = 122

i.e. 0.007625x = 122

i.e. x = 122/0.007625

i.e. x = 16000

So, the Principal is Rs. 16,000/-.

Answer 2

Answer:

16000

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

C.I - S.I =122

P(1+5/100)^3-P-(P*5*3/100)=122

P{(105/100)^3-1-15/100}=122

P(7625/1000000)=122

P=122*1000000/7625

P=16000
