Download Solution PDFGiven:
Principal of Rs. 880 amounts to Rs. 913 in 1
Concept used:
Simple Interest, SI = (P × R × T)/100
Amount = P + SI
where
P = Principal amount
R = Rate of interest per year
T = Time in years
Calculation:
Let the rate of interest be R% p.a.
According to the concept,
880 + (880 × R × 1.5)/100 = 913
⇒ (880 × R × 1.5)/100 = 913 - 880
⇒ R = (33 × 100) ÷ (880 × 1.5)
⇒ R = 2.5
⇒ R =
∴ The rate of interest is
