on a sum of money, the simple interest for 2 years is rs. 324, while the compound interest is rs. 340, the rate of interest being the same in both the cases. the rate of interest is
divide(multiply(const_100, subtract(subtract(340, divide(324, 2)), divide(324, 2))), divide(324, 2))
"the difference between compound interest and simple interest on rs . p for 2 years at r % per annum = ( r ã — si ) / ( 2 ã — 100 ) difference between the compound interest and simple interest = 340 - 324 = 16 ( r ã — si ) / ( 2 ã — 100 ) = 16 ( r ã — 324 ) / ( 2 ã — 100 ) = 16 r = 9.87 % answer : option c"
