The compound interest on a certain sum of money at a certain rate per annum for two years is Rs.2,050, and the simple interest on the same amount of money at the same rate for 3 years is Rs.3, 000. Then the sum of money is
Options:
A . Rs.25, 000
B . Rs.20,000
C . Rs.21,000
D . Rs.18,000
Answer: Option B Answer: (b)Using Rule 6,The difference between C.I. and S.I. on a sum 'P' in 2 years at the rate of R% rate of compound interest will beC.I - S.I. = P$(R/100)^2 = {S.I. × R}/200$ For 3 years, C.I. - S.I. = P$(R/100)^2 × (3 + R/100)$
