Correct Answer: INR 8,275


Solution : We know, $\text{Total amount}=\text{Principal}×(1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{\text{Time}}$
$⇒\text{Total amount}= 25000(1+\frac{10}{100})^{3}$
$⇒\text{Total amount}= 25000×\frac{11}{10}×\frac{11}{10}×\frac{11}{10}= 33275$
$\therefore$ Compound Interest = Total amount – Principal = 33275 – 25000 = INR 8,275
Hence, the correct answer is INR 8,275.
