7200 in 3 years and Rs 8000 in 5 years. What is the rate of interest per annum?Solution
ATQ, Let principal = P, rate = r per year. Amount after 3 years: P(1 + 3r) = 7200 Amount after 5 years: P(1 + 5r) = 8000 Divide second by first: (1 + 5r) / (1 + 3r) = 8000 / 7200 = 10/9 9(1 + 5r) = 10(1 + 3r) 9 + 45r = 10 + 30r 15r = 1 ⇒ r = 1/15 = 6⅔% per annum.
