Answer:

  ₹172.25 at 4.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The growth factor is the ratio of the values at the end and beginning of the second year:

  multiplier = 188.10/180 = 1.045 = 1 + 4.5%

The amount put out is the amount at the end of the first year, divided by this growth factor.

  P = A/(1+r) = 180/1.045 = 172.25

The sum put out is ₹172.25, and the rate of interest is 4.5%.
