उत्तर

C. I. for the third year = Rs. 1452.

C. I. for the second year = Rs. 1320

S.I. on Rs. 1320 for one year = Rs. 1452 – Rs. 1320 = Rs. 132

∴ Rate of Interest = `(132xx100)/(1320) = 10%`

Let P be the original sum of money and r be the rate of interest.

Amount after 2 years – Amount after one year = C.I. for the second year.

`P(1 + 10/100)^2 - P(1 + 10/100) = 1320`

`=> P[(110/100)^2 - (110/100)] = 1320`

`=> P[(11/10)^2 - 11/10] = 1320`

`=> P [(121/100) - 11/10] = 1320`

`=> P == (1320 xx 100)/111 = Rs 12000`

Thus, rate of interest is 10% and original sum of money is Rs.12,000
