The difference between the simple interest and the compound interest at the same rate for ₹32,000 for 2 years is ₹80. What is the rate of interest, if, in the case of compound interest, interest is compounded annually? |
12% per annum 2% per annum 5% per annum 8% per annum |
5% per annum |
Simple Interest = \(\frac{Principal ×Rate × Time }{100}\) SI= \(\frac{32000 × Rate × 2 }{100}\) With compound interest , Amount = P × ( 1 + \(\frac{R}{100}\) )² ATQ, Difference in compound and simple interest = \(\frac{PR²}{ (100)² }\) \(\frac{PR²}{ (100)² }\) = 80 \(\frac{32000× R²}{ (100)² }\)= 80 \(\frac{32× R²}{ 10 }\)= 80 R² = 25 R = 5 So , Rate is 5%
