एका मुद्दल रकमेवर द.सा.द.शे. 10 टक्के दराने 2 वर्षाचे चक्रवाढ व्याज ₹ 945 होते तर मुद्दलाची रक्कम किती असेल? What is the principal amount, if the amount of compound interest on it at 10% p.c.p.a. for 2 years is ₹ 945?

1)₹4800
2)₹4700
3)₹4500✓ Correct
4)₹4900

Using the formula for compound interest over 2 years: CI = P * [(1 + r/100)² - 1]. Substituting r = 10% and CI = 945 gives P = ₹ 4500.
