-
Rs. 11
-
Rs. 11.408
-
Rs. 12
-
Rs. 10
B
Correct answer
Explanation
Principal = Rs. 368, Rate = 10%, Time = 3 years. Simple Interest = 368 × 10 × 3/100 = Rs. 110.4. Compound Interest = 368 × (1 + 10/100)^3 - 368 = 368 × 1.331 - 368 = Rs. 121.568. Difference = 121.568 - 110.4 = Rs. 11.408. The small difference occurs because compound interest accumulates interest on interest over three years.
