  1. An amount at the rate of 5% pa becomes ₹ 10 more at compound interest than that of simple interest after 2 yr. Calculate the principal.
    1. ₹ 4000
    2. ₹ 4050
    3. ₹ 5000
    4. ₹ 5500
Correct Option: A

Here, CI - SI = 10, R = 5%, n = 2 yr and P = ?
According to the formula,
CI - SI = PR2/1002
