Answer

Let sum of money be ₹ x.

Given,

P = ₹ x

r = 10%

n = 3 years

A = ₹ 93,170

By formula,

A = P(1+r100)nP\Big(1+ \dfrac{r}{100}\Big)^n

Substituting values we get :

93170=x×(1+10100)393170=x×(110100)393170=x×(1110)393170=x×13311000x=93170×10001331x=70,000.\Rightarrow 93170 = x \times \Big(1 + \dfrac{10}{100}\Big)^3 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 93170 = x \times \Big(\dfrac{110}{100}\Big)^3 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 93170 = x \times \Big(\dfrac{11}{10}\Big)^3 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 93170 = x \times \dfrac{1331}{1000} \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = \dfrac{93170 \times 1000}{1331} \\[1em] \Rightarrow x = ₹ 70,000.

Hence, sum of money = ₹ 70,000.
