Solution
Here, P = ₹ 12500; R = 12% ; N = 3 years
A = P `(1 + R/100)^N`
= `12500 (1 + 12/100)^3`
= `12500 ((100 + 12)/100)^3`
= `12500 (112/100)^3`
= `12500 ((28 xx 4)/(25 xx 4))^3`
= `12500 (28/25)^3`
= `12500 xx 28/25 xx 28/25 xx 28/25`
= `20/25 xx 28 xx 28 xx 28`
= `0.8 xx 28 xx 28 xx 28`
= ₹ `17561.60`
Hence, he should pay an amount of ₹ 17561.60 to clear his loan.
