We have R = 4 % per annum or 2 % per half-year
T = 2 cycles of half years. Hence we take t = 2.
P = ?
Amount = Rs 7803
We have the formula for compound interest
Amount $(= P{\left( {1 + \frac{R}{{100}}} \right)^T})$
Where P is the principal
T is the time
R is the rate of interest
⇒ 7803 = P ( 1 + 2/100)2
⇒ 7803 = P × 1.02 × 1.02
⇒ P = 7803/1.0404
⇒ P = Rs 7500
T = 2 cycles of half years. Hence we take t = 2.

A=P(1+r/200) ^2
7803=P(1+2/100) ^2
P=7500
7803=P(1+2/100) ^2
P=7500
