Answer» Hi there! Case 1: PRINCIPAL amount; P = Rs.14500 Rate; R = 11% p.a. Time; T = 3 years Simple Interest = P × R × T/100 = 14500 × 11 × 3/100 = Rs. 4785 Therefore AMAN has to pay Rs.4785 interest. Case 2: Principal amount; P = Rs.14500 Rate; R = 10% p.a. Time; T = 3 years So the amount accumulated after 3 years; A = P(1 + R/100)^TP(1+R/100) T = 14500 × (1+10/100)³ = Rs.19299.5 Then COMPOUND interest = Rs.19299.5 - Rs.14500 = Rs.4799.50 Therefore Tarun has to pay Rs.4799.50 interest. This means Tarun pays more interest and by (Rs.4799.50 - Rs.4785) = Rs 14.50 Cheers! Explanation: please thank to all my answer and please mark as brilliant |
