Answer»

Given :  RAM and Shyam TOGETHER lent RS. 3364 at 5% compound interest, compounded annuslly.

The amount Ram gets at the end of three years is the same as Shyam gets at the end of FIVE years.

To Find : The share of Ram in principal amount  

SOLUTION:

Ram Amount  =  P   Rs

Shyam Amount = 3364 - P  Rs

A = P ( 1+ R/100)ⁿ

R = 5 %

The amount Ram gets at the end of three years

= P ( 1 + 5/100)³

= P ( 1.05)³

The amount Shyam gets at the end of 5 years

=  (3364 - P) ( 1 + 5/100)⁵

= (3364 - P) ( 1.05)⁵

(3364 - P) ( 1.05)⁵ = P ( 1.05)³

=> (3364 - P) ( 1.05)² = P  

=> (3364 - P) ( 1.1025)  = P  

=> 3,708.81 - 1.1025P = P

=> 2.1025P =  3,708.81

=> P = 1,764

The share of Ram in principal amount is  1,764 Rs
