If A lends Rs. 3500 to B at 10% p.a. and B lends the same sum to C at 11.5% p.a., then the gain of B (in Rs.) in a period of 3 years is

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{ S.I. = } \frac{P \times R \times T}{100}
\end{aligned}
So, by putting the values in the above formula, our result will be.
\begin{aligned}
\text{ Required result = } \frac{7000 \times 50 \times 9}{3 \times 12 \times 100} = 875
\end{aligned}

[Please note that we have divided by 12 as we converted 9 months in a year format]

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

SI for 3 year = 2600-2240 = 360
SI for 2 year 360/3 * 2 = 240
principal = 2240 - 240 = 2000

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

We need to calculate the profit of B.
It will be,
SI on the rate B lends - SI on the rate B gets

\begin{aligned}
\text{Gain of B}\\ &= \frac{3500\times11.5\times3}{100} - \frac{3500\times10\times3}{100}\\
= 157.50
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let sum = x then Simple Interest = x

Rate = (100 * x) / (x * 8) = 12.5

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}
