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

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let sum = x then Simple Interest = x

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

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 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 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 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}
