Question:If the simple interest on a sum of money at 5% per annum for 3 years is Tk. 1200, the compound interest on the same sum for the same period at the same rate, is:
A Tk. 1260
B Tk. 1261
C Tk. 1264
D Tk. 1265
/44
+ Answer
B
+ ExplanationSum=Tk. `((100 xx 1200)/(3 xx 5))` = Tk. 8000
Amount = Tk. `[8000 xx (1 + 5/100)^3]`
Tk. = `(8000 xx 21/20 xx 21/20 xx 21/20)`
`:.` C.I. = Tk. (9261 - 8000) = Tk. 1261
