उत्तर

For the second year: 

A=Rs 648 ; P=Rs 600 ; n=1 ; r = ?

`therefore  "A" = "P" (1 + "r"/100)^"n"`

`⇒  648 = 600 (1 + "r"/100)^1`

⇒  648 = 600 + 6r 

⇒ 6r = 48

⇒ r = 8 

Hence, rate of interest = 8 % 

For the first year: 

I=Rs 600 ; r=8 % ; n=1 ; P = ? 

`"I" =("P" xx "r" xx "n")/100` 

Rs 600 = Rs `("P" xx 8 xx 1)/100`

P = Rs `60000/8`

P = Rs 7,500

The sum invested= Rs 7,500.
