6.Interest
medium
If the compound interest on a certain sum for $2$ years is ₹ $105$ and simple interest is ₹ $100$, then the sum (In ₹) is
A
$300$
B
$500$
C
$400$
D
None of these
Solution
(b) We have,
$CI – SI =\frac{R \times SI }{200} \Rightarrow 105-100=\frac{R \times 100}{200}$
$\Rightarrow R=10$
Also, $CI – SI =P\left(\frac{R}{100}\right)^{2} \Rightarrow 105-100=P\left(\frac{10}{100}\right)^{2}$
$\Rightarrow P=₹ 500$
