Solution : Given: Principal = Rs. X
Rate = 7.5%
Time = 2 years
The difference between compound interest and simple interest, D = Rs.22.50
We know that,
$D=P(\frac{r}{100})^2$
⇒ $22.50=X(\frac{7.5}{100})^2$
⇒ $22.50=X(\frac{3}{40})^2$
⇒ $22.50=X\times\frac{3}{40}\times\frac{3}{40}$
⇒ $X=1600\times2.5$
⇒ $X=4000$
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 4000.
