Solution:

Given:

A = P × [ 1 + (r/100) ]^n where,

A is the amount in rupees,

P is the principal in rupees,

r is the interest in percentage,

n is time in years.

P = Rs.2100, r = 5% , n = 2 years, A = ?

So,

A = 2100 × [ 1 + (5/100) ]²

A = 2100 × [ 1 + (0.05) ]²

A = 2100 × [ 1.05 ]²

A = 2100 × 1.1025

A = 2,315.25

So, the correct option is B). Rs. 2315.25
