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, $CI – SI =P\left(\frac{R}{100}\right)^{2} \Rightarrow 105-100=P\left(\frac{10}{100}\right)^{2}$

$\Rightarrow P=₹ 500$
