Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
- Compound Interest =56901 $ [ {{( 1+\frac{5}{100} )}^{3}}-1 ] $ $ =5690[ {{( \frac{105}{100} )}^{3}}-1 ] $ $ =5690\times [ ( \frac{21}{20}\times \frac{21}{20}\times \frac{21}{20} )-1 ]=5690\times ( \frac{9261}{8000}-1 ) $ $ =\frac{5690\times 1261}{800}=Rs.,896.88\approx Rs.897 $
