Let the principal amount be P

Interest received by Kamal is=

SI = PRT/100

SI = P(5)(2)/100

SI = P/10 = 0.1P

Interest received by Anand is =

CI = P [ (1 + r/100)^t - 1 ]

CI = P [ (1 + 5/100)^2 - 1 ]

CI = P [ (1.05)^2 - 1 ]

CI = P [ 0.1025 ] = 0.1025 P

As difference between their interests is 15 we get

CI - SI = 15

Putting values, we get

0.1025P - 0.1P = 15

0.0025P = 15

25/10000 P = 15

P = 6000

So, SI = 0.1P = 6000(0.1) = 600

And CI = 600 + 15 = 615

Therefore, Kamal received 600 interest, Anand received 615; both on principal of 6000
