नितिन के पास ₹ 1617 है। उसने इसे अपने पुत्रों प्रवीण और ऋषि के बीच बांट दिया तथा उन्हें इसे वार्षिक रूप से चक्रवृद्धि होने वाले 10% ब्याज दर पर निवेश करने को कहा। यह देखा गया कि प्रवीण और ऋषि को क्रमशः 17 और 18 वर्ष बाद समान धनराशि प्राप्त हुई। नितिन ने प्रवीण को कितनी धनराशि (₹ में) दी थी?
Detailed Solution & Logic
847
Simple Solution:
Let Pravin get = ₹x
Then Rishi gets = ₹1617 − x
Rate = 10% p.a.
Final amounts equal:
$ x(1.1)^{17} = (1617 - x)(1.1)^{18} $
Divide by $(1.1)^{17}$:
$ x = (1617 - x)(1.1) $
$ x = 1778.7 - 1.1x $
$ 2.1x = 1778.7 $
$ x = 847 $
Answer= ₹847
