Answer»

Answer :

4️⃣ ₹2,000

Explanation :

The difference between simple interest and compound interest at the RATE of 10% for 2 tear is ₹20.

Find the principal.

Let's take the principal as p

We know that,

→ S. I. = p × r × t/100

→ S. I. = p × 10 × 2/100

→ S. I. = 20p/100

And also,

The C. I. = Amount - principal

Or,

→ p(1 + r/100)ⁿ - p

→ p(1 + 10/100)² - p

→ p(11/10)² - p

→ 121p/100 - p

→ 21p/100

Given,

→ C. I. - S. I. = 20

→ 21p/100 - 20p/100 = 20

→ p/100 = 20

→ p = 2000

The principal is 2,000

_____________________

Formula used :

1. Amount = p(1 + r/100)ⁿ

  • p = principal
  • r = rate
  • n = time

2. Simple interest = p × r × t/100
