Raghu invested some money in HDFC at 4% per annum rate of interest. What would be the corresponding simple interest (in ₹) if after 2 years, Raghu got ₹102 as compound interest, considering annual compounding?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 100.

 

1st year     :       2nd year

   50                       50

                               50 × 4/100 = 2

So, simple interest for 2 years = 50 + 50 = 100
