Solution

Principal (P) = ₹10,000

Time (t) = 3 years

Rate (R1) = 10%

Rate (R2) = 15%

Rate (R3) = 20%

Amount =`"P"xx(1+"R"_1/100)(1+"R"_2/100)(1+"R"_3/100)`

`=₹10,000xx(1+10/100)(1+15/100)(1+20/100)`

`=₹10,000xx11/10xx23/20xx6/5`

= ₹15,180

C.I. = Amount − Principal

= ₹15,180 − ₹10,000

= ₹5180
