Find the principal if the interest compounded annually at the rate of 10% for twoyears is Rs. 210.
Given details are,
Rate = 10 % per annum
Compound Interest (CI) = Rs 210
Time (t) = 2 years
By using the formula,
Let P be ‘x’
CI = A – P
210 = P (1 + R/100) n – P
= P [(1 + R/100)n - 1]
= x [(1 + 10/100)2 – 1]
= x [(110/100)2 – 1]
210 = x ((1.1)2 – 1)
x = 210 / ((1.1)2 – 1)
= 210/0.21
= Rs 1000
∴ The required sum is Rs 1000
