Detailed Solution

Given,
Principal value, P = Rs 1800,
 Compound interest, C.I. = Rs 378
 Interest rate, r = 10% per annum,
 Time period, t = n years
Apply the compound interest formula and calculate the time period. C.I.=P 1+ r 100 t P   Now substitute, C.I. = 378, P = 1800, r = 10 and t = n
378=1800 1+ 10 100 n 1800   Solve for n
378+1800=1800 1+0.1 n 2178 1800 = 1.1 n 1.21= 1.1 n 1.1 2 = 1.1 n   Compare both sides, it gives n = 2.
Thus, the required time period is 2 years
Hence, the correct option is 4.
