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 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}

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}

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}

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 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}
