compound interest on a sum of money for 2 years compounded annually is Rs 8034 simple interest on the same sum for the same period and at the same rate is Rs 7800 find the sum and the rate of interest​

Respuesta :

Here, we want to find the interest rate and principal

The interest rate, r = 6% and the principal, P = Rs 65,000

Compound interest:

A = P(1 + r/n)^t

Simple interest :

I = P * r * t

Simple interest for 2 years = Rs 7800

Simple interest for 1 year = Rs 7800 / 2

= Rs 3900

Compound interest for 2 years = Rs 8034

Compound interest for the second year = Rs 8034 - Rs 3900

= Rs 4134

Interest on Rs 3900 = Rs 4134 - Rs 3900

= Rs 234

Therefore,

Interest rate, r = 234/3900 × 100

= 0.06 × 100

r = 6%

Recall,

Simple interest :

I = P * r * t

Then,

P = I / r * t

= 3900 / 6% * 1

= 3900 / 0.06

= 65,000

P = Rs 65,000
