Detailed Solution & Logic
5%
Amount after 2 years = 4620
Amount after 2.5 years = 4725
Interest for 0.5 year = 4725 - 4620 = 105
Interest for 1 year = $ 105 \times 2 = 210 $
Interest for 2 years = $ 210 \times 2 = 420 $
Principal P = 4620 - 420 = 4200
Rate R = $ \frac{\text{SI} \times 100}{P \times T} $
$ = \frac{420 \times 100}{4200 \times 2} $
