Question:

If compound interest received on a certain amount in the 2nd year is Rs. 250. What will be the compound interest (in Rs.) for the 3rd year on the same amount at 12% rate of interest?

Options:

320

300

280

270

Correct Answer:

280

Explanation:

Rate = 12% = \(\frac{3}{25}\)

Here,

2100R = 250

1R = \(\frac{250}{2100}\) 

3rd year C.I. = 2352 × \(\frac{250}{2100}\) = 280
