Question
Anoop invested a sum at a simple interest rate of 8% per
annum, and it grew to Rs.1,850 in 6 years. If the same sum is invested at a compound interest rate of 20% per annum for 2 years, what would be the amount received after 2 years?Solution
ATQ, Simple interest = (sum × rate of interest × time period in year) ÷ 100 Let the sum invested be Rs. 'S' So, 1850 - S = (S × 8 × 6) ÷ 100 Or, 1850 - S = 0.48S Or, 1850 = 1.48S So, S = 1250 Amount received from second investment = Sum × {1 + (rate/100)}Time period So, required amount = 1250 × {1 + (20/100)}2 = 1.44 × 1250 = Rs. 1,800
