    Answer : Option C

    Explanation :

    If the difference between the C.I. and S.I. on a certain sum of money for 2 years at rate of interest r % is Rs. X, then the sum is given by;

    Sum = X

    We have;

    X = Rs. 200

    t = 2 years

    r = 12
    Therefore, Sum = 200

    = 200 *

    = 200 * *

    = 200 * 64

    = Rs. 12800 (Option C)
