correct answer is: option b (b)[Rs. 18150]
Explanation: The formula for compound interest is \(A = P(1 + \frac{r}{100})^n\), where A is the amount after n years, P is the principal amount, r is the rate of interest, and n is the number of years.
In this case, P = Rs. 15000, r = 10%, and n = 2 years.
So, \(A = 15000(1 + \frac{10}{100})^2 = 15000(1 + 0.1)^2 = 15000(1.1)^2 = 15000 * 1.21 = 18150\). Therefore, the amount after 2 years is Rs. 18150
