Question Detail
Find the simple interest on the Rs. 2000 at 25/4% per annum for the period from 4th Feb 2005 to 18th April 2005
- Rs 25
- Rs 30
- Rs 35
- Rs 40
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
One thing which is tricky in this question is to calculate the number of days.
Always remember that the day on which money is deposited is not counted while the day on which money is withdrawn is counted.
So lets calculate the number of days now,
Time = (24+31+18) days = 73/365 years = 1/5 years
P = 2000
R = 25/4%
\begin{aligned}
\text{ S.I. = } = \frac{2000 \times 25 }{4 \times 5 \times 100} = 25
\end{aligned}
1. What will the ratio of simple interest earned by certain amount at the same rate of interest for 6 years and that for 9 years.
- 1:2
- 2:1
- 2:2
- 2:3
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Let the principal be P and rate be R
then
\begin{aligned}
\text{ratio = } [\frac{(\frac{P*R*6}{100})}{(\frac{P*R*9}{100})}] \\
= \frac{6PR}{9PR} = 2:3
\end{aligned}
2. Find the simple interest on the Rs. 2000 at 25/4% per annum for the period from 4th Feb 2005 to 18th April 2005
- Rs 25
- Rs 30
- Rs 35
- Rs 40
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
One thing which is tricky in this question is to calculate the number of days.
Always remember that the day on which money is deposited is not counted while the day on which money is withdrawn is counted.
So lets calculate the number of days now,
Time = (24+31+18) days = 73/365 years = 1/5 years
P = 2000
R = 25/4%
\begin{aligned}
\text{ S.I. = } = \frac{2000 \times 25 }{4 \times 5 \times 100} = 25
\end{aligned}
3. Sahil took a loan for 6 years at the rate of 5% per annum on Simple Interest, If the total interest paid was Rs. 1230, the principal was
- 4100
- 4200
- 4300
- 4400
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
\begin{aligned}
\text{S.I.} = \frac{P*R*T}{100} \\
=> P = \frac{S.I. * 100}{R*T}
\end{aligned}
By applying above formula we can easily solve this question, as we are already having the simple interest.
\begin{aligned}
=> P = \frac{1230 * 100}{6*5} \\
=> P = 4100
\end{aligned}
4. There was simple interest of Rs. 4016.25 on a principal amount at the rate of 9%p.a. in 5 years. Find the principal amount
- Rs 7925
- Rs 8925
- Rs 7926
- Rs 7925
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
\begin{aligned}
P = \frac{S.I. * 100}{R*T}
\end{aligned}
So by putting values from our question we can get the answer
\begin{aligned}
P = \frac{4016.25 * 100}{9*5} \\
= 8925
\end{aligned}
5. A financier claims to be lending money at simple interest, But he includes the interest every six months for calculating the principal. If he is charging an interest of 10%, the effective rate of interest becomes.
- 10.25%
- 10%
- 9.25%
- 9%
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Let the sum is 100.
As financier includes interest every six months., then we will calculate SI for 6 months, then again for six months as below:
SI for first Six Months = (100*10*1)/(100*2) = Rs. 5
Important: now sum will become 100+5 = 105
SI for last Six Months = (105*10*1)/(100*2) = Rs. 5.25
So amount at the end of year will be (100+5+5.25)
= 110.25
Effective rate = 110.25 - 100 = 10.25
