| 100 |
 |
|
1 + | R | |
2 | = | 134832 | = | 11236 |
| 100 | 120000 | 10000 |

1+R/100=106/100.
R/100=106/100-1,
R/100=106-100/100,
R/100=6/100,
100R=600,
R=6.
R/100=106/100-1,
R/100=106-100/100,
R/100=6/100,
100R=600,
R=6.

The solution is 7, let me tell how check it out,
This is my own formulae.
A+B+AB/100 believe me it works,
take 7+7+7*7/100=14.49,
Total amount in % * 14.49= 12*14.49 =173.88 he asket for 2 years so 173.88*2 = 347.76 so got it so 7% is correct answer.
