Rate = 2% pa
| Year | ||
| I | 100 | 102 |
| II | 1002 |
1022 |
As both installments are equal multiply I by 102, So
| Year | ||
| I | 100 × 102 | 1022 |
| II | 1002 |
1022 |
Total principle is 10200 + 10000 = 20200
According to the problem
20200 = 6000
1 = 6000/20200
1022 = 6000/20200 × 1022
3090.30
Each installment equals to Rs. 3090.30.
∴ Option 2 is the correct answer.
