    A sum of money amounts to Rs. 6690 after 3 years and to Rs. 10,035 after 6 years on compound interest. Find the sum.       

    A) Rs.4460     

    B)        Rs. 4455      

    C) Rs.4445            

    D)        Rs. 5460      

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Let P be the sum, then \[P{{\left( 1+\frac{r}{100} \right)}^{3}}=6690\,\,and\,P{{\left( 1+\frac{r}{100} \right)}^{6}}=10035.\] \[\Rightarrow \] on dividing we have \[{{\left( 1+\frac{r}{100} \right)}^{3}}={}^{3}/{}_{2}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,P=\text{ }6690\times \frac{2}{3}=\text{ }Rs.\text{ }4460.\]
