      Ravi invested ₹P in a compound interest scheme at an

      annual interest rate of r% for 1 year. Meanwhile, Kriti invested ₹2P in a simple interest scheme at an annual interest rate of 2r% for 2 years. The ratio of the total amount received by Ravi (principal + interest) to the simple interest earned by Kriti is 3:4. Find the value of r.
      A 10% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 30% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 15% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 20% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 40% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Since the compound interest is for one year,
      Amount of Ravi = P + r% of P = P(100 + r)/100
      SP of Kriti = 2P * 2r * 2/100
      [P(100 + r)/100]/[2P * 2r * 2/100] = 3/4
      (100 + r)/8r = 3/4
      400 + 4r = 24r
      400 = 20r
      r = 20%
