Solution
Compound interest on ₹ 15625 for 9 months @ $16 \%$ per annum
$=15625\left[\left(1+\frac{16}{100 \times 4}\right)^{3}-1\right]=15625\left[\left(1+\frac{1}{25}\right)^{3}-1\right]$
$=15625 \times\left[\frac{26^{3}}{25^{3}}-1\right]=25 \times 625 \times\left[\frac{26^{3}}{25^{3}}-1\right]$
$=26^{3}-25^{3}=\left(26^{2}+25^{2}+26 \times 25\right)(26-25)$
$=676+625+650=₹ 1951$
