The compound interest on $$₹ 4,000$$ after 3 years is $$₹ 630.50.$$ Then the rate of interest compounded yearly is :
Given,
Principal (P) = $$₹ 4,000$$
Time (T) = 3 years
Compound Interest = $$₹ 630.50.$$
Let the rate of interest = R
$$=$$> $$4000\left(1+\frac{R}{100}\right)^3-4000=630.5$$
$$=$$> $$4000\left(1+\frac{R}{100}\right)^3=4630.5$$
$$=$$> $$\left(1+\frac{R}{100}\right)^3=\frac{4630.5}{4000}$$
$$=$$> $$\left(1+\frac{R}{100}\right)^3=\frac{9261}{8000}$$
$$=$$> $$1+\frac{R}{100}=\frac{21}{20}$$
$$=$$> $$\frac{R}{100}=\frac{21}{20}-1$$
$$=$$> $$\frac{R}{100}=\frac{1}{20}$$
$$=$$> $$R=5$$%
$$\therefore\ $$Rate of interest = 5%
Hence, the correct answer is Option D
