A
$726$
B
$626$
C
$526$
D
None of these
Solution
(a) Here, $P=1260$ and $R=10$. .
Annual instalment
$=\frac{P}{\left(\frac{100}{100+R}\right)+\left(\frac{100}{100+R}\right)^{2}}=\frac{1260}{\frac{100}{110}+\left(\frac{100}{110}\right)^{2}}$
$=\frac{1260}{\frac{100}{110}\left(1+\frac{100}{110}\right)}=1260 \times \frac{110}{100} \times \frac{110}{210}=₹ 726$
