What will be the simple to compound interest (compounded annually) ratio on two identical funds put in a bank at an interest rate of 8% (per annum) for three years?
A. 3 : 5
B. 1875 : 2029
C. 3 : 4
D. 243 : 342
Answer: Option B
Solution (By Examveda Team)
$$8\% = \frac{2}{{25}}$$
$${\text{Simple Interest}} = \frac{{15625 \times 8 \times 3}}{{100}} = 3750$$
\[\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} \Rightarrow &{{\text{Simple Interest}}}&:&{{\text{Compound Interest}}} \\ {}&{3750}&:&{4058} \\ {}&{1875}&:&{2029} \end{array}\]
