If the compound interest on a certain sum for 2 years at 3% per annum is ₹ 101.50, then the simple interest on the same sum at the same rate and for the same time will be
-
- ₹ 90.00
- ₹ 95.50
- ₹ 100.00
- ₹ 98.25
Correct Option: C
Let the sum be P.
Given Here , Compound Interest ( CI ) = ₹ 101.50 , Rate ( R ) = 3% , Time = 2 years
Using the given formula ,
| C.I. = P | ![]() | ![]() | 1 + | ![]() | n | − 1 | ![]() | |
| 100 |
| 101.50 = P | ![]() | ![]() | 1 + | ![]() | 2 | − 1 | ![]() | |
| 100 |
| ⇒ 101.50 = P | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() | 2 | − 1 | ![]() | |
| 100 |
| ⇒ 101.50 = P | ![]() | ![]() | |
| 10000 |
| ⇒ P = ₹ | |
| 609 |
| P = ₹ | |
| 609 |
| ∴ S.I. = | ||
| 100 |
| ⇒ S.I. = | = ₹ 100 | |
| 609 × 100 |
We can find required answer with the help of given formula :
Here, C.I. = Rs 101.50 , R = 3% , S.I. = ?
| C.I. = S.I. | ![]() | 1 + | ![]() | |
| 200 |
| 101.50 = S.I. | ![]() | 1 + | ![]() | |
| 200 |
| S.I. = | = ₹ 100 | |
| 203 |
