      B Rs.10000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.15000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.13050 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Interest earned = x × {(1 + 0.08)³ – 1} = 2597.12

      x{(1.08)³ – 1} = 2597.12

      x{1.2597 – 1} = 2597.12

      0.2597x = 2597.12

      x = 10000

      So, the value of x is Rs. 10,000
