  1. Answer :-

    • The simple interest is Rs 4800.
    • The compound interest is Rs 4992.

    Step-by-step explanation :-

    • In this question, the principal, rate and time have been given to us. We have to find the simple interest and compound interest.

    —————-

    Let’s find the simple interest first!

    We know that :-

    [tex] \underline{ \boxed{ \sf SI = \dfrac{Principal \times Rate \times Time}{100}}}[/tex]

    Here,

    • Principal = Rs 30000.
    • Rate = 8 p.c.p.a.
    • Time = 2 years.

    Hence,

    [tex]\tt SI = \dfrac{30000 \times 8 \times 2}{100}[/tex]

    Cutting off the zeroes,

    [tex] \tt SI = \dfrac{300 \times 8 \times 2}{1} [/tex]

    Now let’s multiply the remaining numbers.

    [tex] \tt SI = 300 \times 8 \times 2[/tex]

    Multiplying the remaining numbers,

    [tex]\overline{\boxed{\tt SI = Rs \: 4800}}[/tex]

    • The simple interest is Rs 4800.

    Now let’s find the compound interest!

    First let’s find the amount.

    We know that :-

    [tex] \underline{\boxed{\sf Amount = Principal \Bigg(1 + \dfrac{Rate}{100} \Bigg)^{Time}}}[/tex]

    Here,

    • Principal = Rs 30000.
    • Rate = 8 p.c.p.a.
    • Time = 2 years.

    Hence,

    [tex] \rm Amount = 30000 \bigg(1 + \dfrac{8}{100} \bigg)^{2} [/tex]

    Making 1 a fraction by taking 1 as the denominator,

    [tex] \rm Amount = 30000 \bigg( \dfrac{1}{1} + \dfrac{8}{100} \bigg)^{2} [/tex]

    The LCM of 1 and 100 is 100, so adding the fractions using their denominators,

    [tex] \rm Amount = 30000 \bigg( \dfrac{1 \times 100 + 8 \times 1}{100 } \bigg)^{2} [/tex]

    On simplifying,

    [tex] \rm Amount = 30000 \bigg( \dfrac{100 + 8}{100} \bigg)^{2} [/tex]

    Adding 8 to 100,

    [tex] \rm Amount = 30000 \bigg( \dfrac{108}{100} \bigg) ^{2} [/tex]

    The power here is 2, so removing the brackets and multiplying 108/100 with itself 2 times,

    [tex] \rm Amount = 30000 \times \dfrac{108}{100} \times \dfrac{108}{100} [/tex]

    Let’s multiply 108/100 with itself 2 times first.

    [tex] \rm Amount = 30000 \times \dfrac{108 \times 108}{100 \times 100} [/tex]

    On multiplying,

    [tex] \rm Amount = 30000 \times \dfrac{11664}{10000} [/tex]

    Cutting off the zeroes,

    [tex] \rm Amount = 3 \times \dfrac{11664}{1} [/tex]

    Now let’s multiply the remaining numbers.

    [tex] \rm Amount = 3 \times 11664[/tex]

    Multiplying 3 with 11664,

    [tex] \overline{\boxed{ \rm Amount = Rs \: 34992}}[/tex]

    —————-

    Now, as we know the amount, let’s find the compound interest!

    We know that :-

    [tex] \underline{ \boxed{\sf CI = Amount – Principal}}[/tex]

    Here,

    • Amount = Rs 34992.
    • Principal = Rs 30000.

    Hence,

    [tex] \boxed{ \bf CI = 34992 – 30000}[/tex]

    Subtracting 30000 from 34992,

    [tex] \overline{\boxed{ \bf CI = Rs \: 4992}}[/tex]

    • The compound interest is Rs 4992.
