Solution

Given that,

Principal (P) = ₹ 30,000

Rate of interest (R) = 7% p.a.

Compound interest = ₹ 4,347

Amount after compound interest

A = P`(1 + "R"/100)^"T"` and

I = A - P

∴ 4,347 = 30,000`(1 + 7/100)^"T" - 30,000`

= 30,000[(1.07)T - 1]

∴ 4,347 = 30,000[(1.07)T - 1]

∴ (1.07)= `4347/30000 + 1`

= `1449/10000 + 1`

= `11449/10000`

= `(107/100)^2`

= (1.07)2

∴ T = 2

∴ Amount is invested for 2 years.
