For dolly

 Total principal + ( PTR/100)

= 2000 +\frac{\left \{ 2000\times 10\times N \right \}}{100}

2000 + 2000N

For lily

Total = P \left ( 1 + \frac{R}{100} \right ) ^{T}

= 18000 (1.1) {n}

According to the given condition 2000 + 2000n = 2042 + 18000 (1.1)n

Only n = 3\: satis\! f\! y\: this \: equation
