Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Let the principal be P.

Simple Interest (SI) for 2 years at 4% per annum:

SI = P × 4/100 × 2 = 0.08P

Compound Interest (CI) for 2 years at 4% per annum:

CI = P(1 + 4/100)^2 - P = P(1.04)^2 - P = 1.0816P - P = 0.0816P

Ratio of CI to SI:

CI : SI = 0.0816P : 0.08P = 816 : 800 = 51 : 50

हिन्दी उत्तर:

माना मूलधन P है।

2 वर्षों के लिए 4% प्रति वर्ष की दर से साधारण ब्याज (SI):

SI = P × 4/100 × 2 = 0.08P

2 वर्षों के लिए 4% प्रति वर्ष की दर से चक्रवृद्धि ब्याज (CI):

CI = P(1 + 4/100)^2 - P = P(1.04)^2 - P = 1.0816P - P = 0.0816P

CI और SI का अनुपात:

CI : SI = 0.0816P : 0.08P = 816 : 800 = 51 : 50
