Gɪᴠᴇɴ :-
- The difference between compound interest and simple interest at the same rate on 5000 for 2 years is Rs. 72 .
Tᴏ Fɪɴᴅ :-
- The rate of interest per annum is ?
Fᴏʀᴍᴜʟᴀ ᴜsᴇᴅ :-
The Difference between compound interest and simple interest on the same sum P , with Rate as R% and Time Equals to 2 Years is :- (P * R²)/(100)²
Sᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ :-
→ Principal = Rs.5000
→ D = Rs.72
→ Time = 2 Years.
→ Rate = Let R%.
Putting values in Above Told Formula Now, we get :-
→ 72 = (5000 * R²)/(100*100)
→ 72 = (5 * R²) / 10
→ 72 = (R²/2)
→ 72 * 2 = R²
→ R² = 144
→ R² = 12 * 12
→ R² = (12)²
→ R = 12% (Ans.)
Hence, The Required Rate of interest is 12% Per Annum.
Answer:
option (D) 12%
Step-by-step explanation:
S.I. = ( 5000 × r/100× 2) = (100r).
C.I. = [5000 × ( 1+ r/100)^2-5000]
= { 5000 × [1+r/100)^2 -1 ] }
= [ 5000× ( r^2/10000+r/50)]
= 5000(r^2+200r) /10000 = ( r^ / 2 + 100r)
(C.I.) - ( S. I) = (r^2/2+100r) - (100r) = r^2/2.
so, r^2/2 = 72=> r^2 = 144 => r = √ 144 = 12.
Hence, rate = 12% p.a. ( ans)
