Let the rate be ‘R’. Equation for final amount after adding compound interest is: A = P × (1 + (R/100))n where P is Principal Amount, R is the rate of interest and n is the time span ⇒23328=20000× (1 + (R/100))2 ⇒ 1.1664 = (1 + (R/100))2 Taking square root ⇒ 1.08 = 1 + (R/100) ⇒ 0.08 = R/100 ⇒ R = 0.08 × 100 = 8%
