Reema took a loan of Rs 1200 with simple interest for as many years as the rate of interest. If she paid Rs. 432 as interest at the end of the loan period, what was the rate of interest.

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:

Let sum = x then Simple Interest = x

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

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 D

Explanation:

We can get SI of 3 years = 12005 - 9800 = 2205

SI for 5 years = (2205/3)*5 = 3675 [so that we can get principal amount after deducting SI]

Principal = 12005 - 3675 = 6125

So Rate = (100*3675)/(6125*5) = 12%

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{S.I.} = \frac{P*R*T}{100} \\
=> P = \frac{S.I. * 100}{R*T} \\
=> P = \frac{5400 * 100}{12*3} = Rs 15000
\end{aligned}
