Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sum is Rs100
6% Simple interest for 2 years = 6×2=Rs 12
Compound interest for 2 years = 100(1+6/100)^2 – 100 = 100×1.06^2–100 =1.1236×100 –100 = 112.36–100 =Rs 12.36
So difference of interest = 12.36-12 = Rs .36
Rs .36 is the difference when the sum is Rs 100
Rs 90 is the difference when the sum
= (100/.36)× 90 = Rs 25000
The sum is Rs 25000
