• compound interest..
  p=6, r=1000, n=2
  amount=p[1+(r/100)]^n
  =6[1+(1000/100)]^2
  =6*11*11= 726

• 720
  1st yr 1000% of 6 is 60
  so cost wil be 60+6=66
  2nd yr 1000% of 66 is 660
  so cost will be 660+60=720

• 6*1000/100=60;60+6=66 after 1 year
  66*1000/100=660;660+66=726

• 720 as 60+(1000%of(60+1000%6))
• 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
• At the end of first year = 1000% of 6= 60
  so, 60 +6= 66,
  At the end of second year = 1000% of 66= 660
  So, total = 660+66=726 Ans.
