4. Find the rate of compound interest for Rs. 10,000 amounts to Rs. 11,000 2 pmin two years.​

Answer»

Given:

Principle money,P=Rs 10,000

Amount,A=Rs 11,000

Time,t=2 years

To find:

Rate of COMPOUND interest

Solution:

We KNOW that

Amount=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^t

Using the formula

11000=10000(1+\frac{r}{100})^2

\frac{11000}{10000}=(1+\frac{r}{100})^2

1.1=(1+\frac{r}{100})^2

\sqrt{1.1}=1+\frac{r}{100}

1.049-1=\frac{r}{100}

0.049=\frac{r}{100}

r=0.049\times 100=4.9%

HENCE, the rate of compound interest=4.9%
