Correct Answer - Option 3 : Rs. 6600
Given:
Sum = Rs. 15000
Rate of interest = 20%
Time = 2 years
Formula used:
Compound interest = P(1 + R/100)N - P
Here, P = Principal, R = rate of interest and N = time
Calculation:
Compound interest = P(1 + R/100)N - P
Compound interest = 15000(1 + 20/100)2 - 15000
Compound interest = 15000 × 36/25 - 15000 = Rs. 6600
∴ Compound interest earned is Rs. 6600
