At 5% per annum simple interest, Rahul borrowed Rs. 500. What amount will he pay to clear the debt after 4 years

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let sum be x and rate be r%
then, (x*r*15)/100 = 3x [important to note here is that simple interest will be 3x not 4x, beause 3x+x = 4x]

=> r = 20%

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Two things need to give attention in this question, First we need to calculate gain for 1 year only.
Second, where we take money at some interest and lends at other, then we use to subtract each other to get result in this type of question. Lets solve this Simple Interest question now.

\begin{aligned}
\text{Gain in 2 year = } \\
[(5000 \times \frac{25}{4} \times \frac{2}{100})-(\frac{5000 \times 4 \times 2}{100})] \\
= (625 - 400) = 225 \\
\text{ So gain for 1 year = }\\
\frac{225}{2} = 112.50
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let R% be the rate of simple interest then,

from question we can conclude that

\begin{aligned}
(\frac{5000*R*2}{100}) + (\frac{3000*R*4}{100}) = 2200 \\

<=> 100R + 120R = 2200 \\
<=> R = 10\%


\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let rate = R% then Time = R years.
\begin{aligned}
=> \frac{1200*R*R}{100}=432 \\
=> R^2 = 36 \\
=> R = 6\%

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

We need to calculate the total amount to be paid by him after 4 years, So it will be Principal + simple interest.

So,
\begin{aligned}
=> 500 + \frac{500*5*4}{100}
=> Rs. 600
\end{aligned}
