The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will calculate the simple interest (SI) on the borrowed amount and the compound interest (CI) on the deposited amount, then find the gain. ### Step 1: Calculate Simple Interest (SI) The formula for Simple Interest is: \[ \text{SI} = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100} \] Where: - \( P \) = Principal amount (Rs 32,000) - \( R \) = Rate of interest (9%) - \( T \) = Time (3 years) Substituting the values: \[ \text{SI} = \frac{32000 \times 9 \times 3}{100} \] \[ \text{SI} = \frac{864000}{100} \] \[ \text{SI} = 8640 \] ### Step 2: Calculate Compound Interest (CI) The formula for the amount \( A \) in compound interest is: \[ A = P \left(1 + \frac{R}{100}\right)^T \] Where: - \( P \) = Principal amount (Rs 32,000) - \( R \) = Rate of interest (10%) - \( T \) = Time (3 years) Substituting the values: \[ A = 32000 \left(1 + \frac{10}{100}\right)^3 \] \[ A = 32000 \left(1 + 0.1\right)^3 \] \[ A = 32000 \left(\frac{11}{10}\right)^3 \] \[ A = 32000 \times \frac{1331}{1000} \] \[ A = 32000 \times 1.331 \] \[ A = 42656 \] ### Step 3: Calculate Compound Interest (CI) Now, we can find the compound interest: \[ \text{CI} = A - P \] \[ \text{CI} = 42656 - 32000 \] \[ \text{CI} = 10656 \] ### Step 4: Calculate Gain The gain is the difference between the compound interest earned and the simple interest paid: \[ \text{Gain} = \text{CI} - \text{SI} \] \[ \text{Gain} = 10656 - 8640 \] \[ \text{Gain} = 2016 \] ### Final Answer The gain at the end of 3 years is Rs 2016. ---
