Options:

5481

5184

5841

5814

Correct Answer:

5184

Explanation:

30% = \(\frac{3}{10}\)

Ist year =   10                13

IInd year =  100             169

Now equal both installment

              130               169

              100               169

--------------------------------------------

              230               338

         Principal             Due debt

                      x48

       169 unit     →       8112

          1 unit     →       48

       Interest  = 338 - 230 = 108

                    = 48  × 108 = 5184
