The difference of simple interest on a sum of money for 8 years and 10 years is Rs.200. If the rate of interest is 10 % p.a, then what is the sum of money? |
₹1,000 ₹1,400 ₹1,600 ₹1,200 |
₹1,000 |
Let initial sum = P Rate = 10% We know , Simple Interest = \(\frac{Principal ×Rate × Time }{100}\) \(\frac{P ×10 × 10 }{100}\) - \(\frac{P ×10 × 8 }{100}\) = 200 20P = 20000 P = 1000 |
