Options
A. Rs. 704
B. Rs. 854

Also asked in:

Correct Answer: Rs. 704

Explanation:

We know that,

$S . I . = \frac{PTR}{100} ? P = \frac{S . I x 100}{T x R} And also, C . I = P [{(1 + \frac{R}{100})}^{n} - 1]$

From given data, P = Rs. 8625

Now, C.I = $8625 [{(1 + \frac{4}{100})}^{2} - 1] = 8625 [{(\frac{26}{25})}^{2} - 1] = 8625 [\frac{676}{625} - 1] = 8625 x \frac{51}{625} C . I = Rs . 703.80$
