Q:

If the simple interest on a sum of money at 5% per annum for 3 years is Rs. 1200, find the compound interest on the same sum for the same period at the same rate.

A) Rs.1251 B) Rs.1261
C) Rs.1271 D) Rs,1281
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs.1261

Explanation:

Clearly, Rate = 5% p.a .,

Time = 3 years

S.I =Rs.1200.

So,Principal

=Rs.(100 x 1200/3x5)

=Rs.8000.

 

Amount

=Rs.[8000 x (1+5/100)³]

=Rs(8000x21/20x21/20x21/20)

= Rs.9261

 

C.I

=Rs.(9261-8000)

=Rs.1261.
