    What would be the compound interest obtained on an amount of Rs. 4800 at the rate of 5 p.c.p.a. after 3 years?

    A)  Rs. 623.5

    B)  Rs. 756.6

    C)  Rs. 817.8

    D)  Rs. 448.7

    E)  None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     \[CI=P\left[ {{\left( 1+\frac{R}{100} \right)}^{T}}-1 \right]\] \[=4800\left[ {{\left( 1+\frac{5}{100} \right)}^{3}}-1 \right]\] \[=4800\left[ {{\left( \frac{21}{20} \right)}^{3}}-1 \right]\] \[=4800\left( \frac{9261}{8000}-1 \right)\] \[=4800\times \left( \frac{9261-8000}{8000} \right)\] \[=\frac{4800\times 1261}{8000}=Rs.\,756.6\]
