The formula for compound interest is CI = P*(1+r/100)^n-P
where A= Amount, P= Principal, r= Rate of interest in % and n= number of years.
The formula for Simple interest is I= P*n*r/ 100
In the given problem r= 5% and n=2 years. Substituting , we have
P* (1.05)^2 -P =328 or P*1.1025- P = 328
.1025 P = 328
Therefore P = 328/ 0.1025 = Rs 3200.
Now we can calculate simple interest using the value of P= 3200
Simple Interest I= 3200*2*5/100 = Rs 320
