The difference between compound interest and simple interest on ₹x at 6.5% per annum for 2 years is ₹33.80. What is the value of x?
Given, the difference between compound interest and simple interest for 2 years = ₹33.80
Rate (R%) = 6.5%
Principal (P) = ₹x
From the formula, difference between compound interest and simple interest for 2 years = $$P\left(\frac{R}{100}\right)^2$$
$$=$$> $$33.8=x\times\left(\frac{6.5}{100}\right)^2\ $$
$$=$$> $$x=\frac{33.8\times100\times100}{6.5\times6.5}$$
$$=$$> $$x=₹8000$$
Hence, the correct answer is Option B
