Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : Rs. 1984.5 Given: A = Rs. 2178 N = 2 Years R1 = 10% p.a. R2 = 5% p.a. Formula used: A = P × {1 + (R/100)}N Where P = Principal amount, R = Rate of interest in %, N = Number of years Calculation: According to formula, 2178 = P × {1 + (10/100)}2 ⇒ 2178 = (P × 11 × 11)/100 ⇒ P = (2178 × 100)/121 ⇒ P = 1800 Now at 5% rate of interest A = 1800 × {1 + (5/100)}2 ⇒ A = (1800 × 21 × 21)/400 ⇒ A = 1984.5 ∴ Received amount will be Rs. 1984.5. |
