Answer : 3. "Any two of (1, 2 & 3)"
Explanation :

Answer: C) Any two of (1, 2 & 3) Explanation: Using Both 1 & 2 statements we get the rate of interest as in (1) we have given principle amount and in (2) compound interest for 2 years. By this data we get the rate%. Using Both 1 & 3 statements we can get the rate% as we have principle amount & difference between compound interest and simple interest in 2 years. Using Both 2 & 3 statements we get compound interest & simple interest by which we get principle amount. So that we can calculate %rate. Hence by using any two of the three statements(1,2&3) we get rate of interest.
