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)

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

$=> 4P + 70800 - 5P = 58800$

$=> P = 70800 - 58800 - 12000$

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

$\Large 12000+\frac{12000 \times r \times 3}{100}$

$\Large 120 \times 3 \times r = 14160 - 12000 = 2160$

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

$r = 6 \text{%}$

Rs. 800 becomes Rs. 956 in 3 years at certain simple rate of interest. If the rate of interest is increased by 4%, what amount will Rs. 800 become in 3 years ?

ARs. 1020.8

BRs. 1025

CRs. 1025

DData inadequate

upendra ? undefined

Correct answer is: Rs. 1025

Explanation:

SI = 956 – 800 = 156 Rs.

$\therefore Rate = \frac{SI\times 100}{Prin.\times Time}$

$= \frac{156\times 100}{800\times 3} = 6.5\%\ per\ annum$

$\text{∴ New rate = 10.5% }$

$\therefore SI = \frac{PRT}{100}$

$\frac{800\times 3\times 10.5}{100} = 252\ Rs.$

$∴ Amount = 800 + 252 = 1052 Rs.$
