Solution
Half the given annual rate and double the given number of years.
Explanation:
If interest is compounded half-yearly, then `R = R/2` and T = 2T = 2n
Now, the amount will be
`A = P(1 + R/200)^(2n)`
∴ C = A – P
So, half the given annual rate and double the given number of years.
Hence, half the given annual rate and double the given number of years.
