    A) Rs. 285 

    B) Rs. 280

    C) Rs. 275             

    D) Rs. 270

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Given, \[t=8\,yr,\]\[r=3.5%,\]\[A=Rs.\,364.80\] Let amount\[=Rs.\,P\] Since,    \[A=P\left( 1+\frac{RT}{100} \right)\] \[\therefore \]      \[364.80=P\left( 1+3.5\times \frac{8}{100} \right)\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[364.80=P\left( 1+\frac{35\times 8}{100} \right)\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{3648}{10}=P\left( \frac{128}{100} \right)\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[P=\frac{36480}{128}\]                           \[=Rs.\,285\]
