Simple interest on a certain sum at a certain annual rate of interest is 16% of the sum. If the numbers representing rate percent and time in years be equal, then the rate of interest is

A$\text{4%}$

B$\text{6%}$

C$\text{4.5%}$

D$\text{6.5%}$

upendra ? undefined

Correct answer is: \(\text{4%}\)

Explanation:

Simple interest on a certain sum at a certain annual rate of interest is 16% of the sum. If the numbers representing rate percent and time in years be equal, then the rate of interest is:

\(\text{Given: Simple interest } (SI) = 16\% \text{ of the sum} \)

\(SI = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100} \)

\(\frac{16P}{100} = \frac{P \times R \times R}{100} \)

\(16 = R^2\)

\(R = \sqrt{16}\)

\(R = 4\)

A sum of money at simple interest amounts to Rs. 14,160 in 3 years. If the rate of interest is increased to 25%, the same sum amounts to Rs. 14,700 in the same time. The rate of interest is

A$\text{5%}$

B$5 \frac{1}{2}$

C$\text{6%}$

D$\text{7%}$

upendra ? undefined

Correct answer is: 6%

Explanation:

\(\Large P+\frac{Pr \times 3}{100} = 14160\)

\(\Large P + P \times \frac{5r}{400} \times 3 = 14700\)

\(\left[ Rate\ of\ Int. = r + \frac{25}{100} r \right]\)

(By Ii) and (ii)

\(\Large P + \frac{5}{4} \left(14160-P\right)\)

\(=> 4P + 70800 - 5P = 58800\)

\(=> P = 70800 - 58800 - 12000\)

\(\text{Therefore, From equation (i),}\)

\(\Large 12000+\frac{12000 \times r \times 3}{100}\)

\(\Large 120 \times 3 \times r = 14160 - 12000 = 2160\)

\(=> \Large r = \frac{2160}{120 \times 3}\)

\(r = 6 \text{%}\)
