Find the rate at Simple interest, at which a sum becomes four times of itself in 15 years.

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 A

Explanation:

S.I. = 956 - 800 = Rs 156

\begin{aligned}
R = \frac{156*100}{800*3} \\
R = 6\frac{1}{2}\% \\

\text{ New Rate = }6\frac{1}{2}+4 \\
= \frac{21}{2} \% \\

\text{ New S.I. = }800\times\frac{21}{2}\times{3}{100} \\
= 252
\end{aligned}

Now amount will be 800 + 252 = 1052

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Here firstly we need to calculate the principal amount, then we can calculate the new rate.

\begin{aligned}
P = \frac{S.I. * 100}{R*T} \\
P = \frac{840 * 100}{5*8} \\
P = 2100 \\

\text{Required Rate = } \frac{840 * 100}{5*2100} \\
R = 8\%\\

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Clue:
Firstly we need to calculate the SI with prinical 800,Time 3 years and Rate 9/2%, it will be Rs. 108

Then we can get the Time as

Time = (100*108)/(150*8) = 9

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the present worth be Rs.x
Then,S.I.= Rs.(132 - x)

=› (x*5*2/100) = 132 - x

=› 10x = 13200 - 100x

=› 110x = 13200

x= 120
