Correct Answer: INR $730\frac{10}{63}$


Solution : P = INR 2,000
Rate = 5%
Time = 3 years
Instalment = $\frac{A\times 100}{N\times 100 + ((N-1) + (N-2) + .....1)\times R }$
where, $A$ = Amount, $R$ = Rate, $N$ = Number of Years
Simple Interest = $\frac{P\times R\times T}{100} = \frac{2000\times 5\times 3}{100} = 300$
Amount = 2000 + 300 = Rs. 2300
Instalment = $\frac{2300\times 100}{3\times 100 + (2+1)\times 5}$
$= \frac{46000}{63} = 730\frac{10}{63}$
Hence, the correct answer is INR $730\frac{10}{63}$.
