The compound interest on a certain sum of money for 2 years at 4% per annum is Rs. 204. What would be the simple interest on the same sum at the same rate for the same time?
Explanation:
Effective rate of compound interest for 2 years at 4% = 4 + 4 + (44)/100 = 8.16%. Simple interest rate = 4 * 2 = 8%. Given 8.16% of sum = 204 => 1% of sum = 25. Simple Interest = 8% of sum = 8 * 25 = Rs. 200.
