:hmm:This is where the problem is... The explanation for this problem is different. The answer is given as Rs 500 which is the annual installment. Here is the explanation Let the annual payment be Rs x. Then, (Amount of x for 3yrs) + Amount of x for 2 yrs) + Amount of x for 1 yr) + x = 2210 ( x + (x*7*3/100) + ( x + (x*7*2/100) + (x + (x*7*1/100) + x = 2210 442x= 2210 * 100 x= Rs 500 Please explain... I am loosing my head over this... If we talk about installments then always an equal amount is paid including the interest but here the scenario if different..
