    D)  Rs. 1,50,000

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] Let the required amount =p \[\frac{P}{2}\,\,\left[ {{\left( 1+\frac{10}{100} \right)}^{4}}-\,1 \right]-\,\frac{P\times 4\times 5}{100}=3205\] \[\frac{P}{2}\,\,\left[ {{\left( \frac{11}{100} \right)}^{4}}-\,1 \right]-\,\frac{P}{5}=3205\] \[\frac{P}{2}\,\,\left[ \frac{14641}{10000}-\,1 \right]-\,\frac{P}{5}=3205\] \[\frac{P}{2}\,\,\left[ \frac{4641}{10000} \right]-\,\frac{P}{5}=3205\] \[\frac{4641P}{20000}-\,\frac{P}{5}=3205\] \[\frac{641P}{20000}=3205\] \[P=\frac{3205}{641}\times 20000=Rs.\,\,10,0000\]
