SSC CHSL - 28 Nov 2025 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q54

Find CI on ₹1000 for 3 years at 10% p.a.?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Has been given :

Principal = Rs 1000

Interest rate = 10% per annum

time = 3 years

According to the formula:

Mixture A = P(1 + r/100)³

Compound interest = A − P

A = 1000(1 + 10/100)³

= 1000(1.1)³

= 1000 × 1.331

= 1331

Compound interest = 1331 − 1000 = 331

Compound interest = Rs 331
