The total difference between compound interest and simple interest on a certain sum of money for 2 years at two different rates of 14\(\frac{2}{7}\)% for 1st year and 11\(\frac{1}{9}\)% for 2nd year is Rs.40. The sum of money is: |
Rs. 2000 Rs. 2250 Rs. 2840 Rs. 2520 |
Rs. 2520 |
14\(\frac{2}{7}\)% = \(\frac{1}{7}\) 11\(\frac{1}{9}\)% = \(\frac{1}{9}\) Here, for 2 years difference: ⇒ \(\frac{Difference}{Principal}\) = \(\frac{1}{7}\) × \(\frac{1}{9}\) = \(\frac{1}{63}\) ATQ, ⇒ 1R = 40 ⇒ Principal = 63R = 63 × 40 = Rs.2520 |
