Solutions by Arjit:
(1) Installment* [(100/100+r)+(100/100+r)^2=Borrowed Amount
Use this formula to get Answer
(2) 4 years me 2 times
4+4 yrs me 4 times
4+4+4 yrs me 8 times
(3) Interest=10000(1+1/100)^3-10000
(4) First year CI or SI will be same=4 Rs
Second year interest=100[(1+4/100)^2)-100=4.16
Difference=4.16-4.00=0.16
……0.16———100
1—————100/0.16
88…………100*88/0.16=55000
(5) 50000(1-20/1000)^2……Please note, it is mentioned 1000 here.
(6)10648=P(1+10/100)^3…CALCULATE P
(7) Let share be x and 16400-x…..x elder and 16400-x younger
x(1+5/100)^2=16400-x(1+5/100)^3
because 18 yrs son will become 20 yrs in 2 yrs and 17 years son will become in 3 yrs
(8) Difference in CI-SI = 410 – 400 = Rs. 10
SI 1 year = 400/2 = Rs. 200 ..
This will work as Pricpl for next yr and intrest will be 10 rupees
10=200*r*1/100
r= 5%
