Answer
View full question & answer→Let the value of monthly instalment be Rs. X.
Maturity value (M.V.) = Rs. 8088
Period = n = 3 years = 36 months
Rate of interest $= r = 8\%$ p.a.
$\text { S.I }=P \times \frac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \frac{r}{100}$
$=X \times \frac{36 \times 37}{24} \times \frac{8}{100}$
$=4.44 X $
Total amount of maturity $=36 X +4.44 X$
$\Rightarrow 8088=40.44 X$
$\Rightarrow X=200$
Thus, the value of monthly installment is Rs. 200.
