At what rate of compound interest per annum will a sum of Rs. 1200 become Rs. 1348.32 in 2 years?
6%
6.5%
7%
7.5%
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Let the rate be R% p.a.

Then, 1200 x 1 + R 2 = 1348.32
100

1 + R 2 = 134832 = 11236
100 120000 10000

1 + R 2 = 106 2
100 100

1 + R = 106
100 100

R = 6%
