SSC CPO - 11 Dec 2025 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q101

If Roshan lent Rs. 6,000 at 9% per annum compound interest, what will be the amount needs to pay after 2 years?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Principal (P) = ₹6,000, Rate (R) = 9% per annum, Time (T) = 2 years
A=P(1+R100)TA=6000(1+9100)2=6000(109100)2A = P \left(1 + \frac{R}{100}\right)^T\\ A = 6000 \left(1 + \frac{9}{100}\right)^2\\ = 6000 \left(\frac{109}{100}\right)^2

= 6,000 × (11,881/10,000) = ₹7,128.60
