Given:
The principal is 625 rupee
Rate is 8%
Concept:
SI=10P×R×T​ 0
CI=P[(1+100r​)n−1] Here, n is the number of terms in the year.
Calculation:
The simple interest for 2 years
⇒100625×8×2​ ⇒25×2×2 ⇒ 100 rupee
Now, Compound interest for 2 years is
⇒625[(1+1008​)2−1] ⇒625[(100108​)2−1] ⇒625[(108)2−(100)2]×100001​ ⇒16208×8​ ⇒ 104 rupee
Now, The difference between CI and SI is
⇒104−100 ⇒ 4
∴ The difference between CI and SI is 4.
The difference between CI and SI for 2 years is
P(100r​)2 The difference is
⇒625(1008​)2 ⇒625×6254​ ⇒ 4
∴ The difference between CI and SI is 4. This short trick works only for 2 years.
