Solution
(i) Here Principal (P) = Rs. 8,000
Rate of interest = 10%
Interest for the first year =`(8,000xx10xx1)/100`
= Rs.800
(ii) ∴ Amount = Rs.8,000 + Rs.800 = Rs.8,800
Thus Principal for the second year = Rs.8,800
(iii) Interest for the second year
`=(8,800xx10xx1)/100`
= Rs.880
(iv) Amount at the end of second year = Rs.8,800 + Rs.880 = Rs.9,680
(v) Hence compound interest earned in 2 years
= Rs.9,680 − Rs.8,000 = Rs.1680
