    At what rate of interest will Rs. 20000 become Rs. 24200 after 2 yr when interest is compounded annually?

    A)  5%                  

    B)  6%  

    C)  10%    

    D)  15%

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    P = Rs. 20000, A = Rs. 24200, t = 2 yr \[\,\,20000\times {{\left( 1+\frac{R}{100} \right)}^{2}}=24200\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{\left( 1+\frac{R}{100} \right)}^{2}}=\frac{24200}{20000}=\frac{121}{100}={{\left( \frac{11}{10} \right)}^{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\] \[1+\frac{R}{100}=\frac{11}{10}\Rightarrow \frac{R}{100}=\left( \frac{11}{10}-1 \right)=\frac{1}{10}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\] \[R=\left( 100\times \frac{1}{10} \right)%=10%\]
