Question
Javed deposited 12000 rupees at 9 p.c.p.a. in a bank for some years, and withdrew his interest every year. At the end of the period, he had received altogether 17,400 rupees. For how many years had he deposited his money?
Solution
Given:
Principal (P) = 12000 rupees,
Rate of interest (R) = 9%
Total Amount = 17400 rupees
Formula:
Total interest (I) = Total Amount − Principal
Solution:
Total interest (I) = 17400 − 12000
= 5400 rupees
Time (T) = `("I"xx100)/("P"xx"R")`
= `(5400xx100)/(12000xx9)`
= 5 years
Hence, Javed had deposited the money for 5 years.
