Correct Answer - Option 1 : 2147.2
Given:
Simple interest = Rs. 1600, at the rate of 20% and time = 4 years
Formula used:
If P = Principal, R = Rate of Interest, and T = Time Period; then:
Simple interest = (P × R × T)/100, and
Compound interest = P(1 + R/100)t - P
Calculation:
1600 = (P × 20 × 4)/100
⇒ P = 2,000
Now,
C.I = 2,000[(1 + 20/100)4 - 1]
⇒ 2,000 × [1.0736] = Rs. 2,147.2
∴ The compound interest is Rs. 2,147.2.
