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.

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 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Always remember that the day on which money is deposited is not counted while the day on which money is withdrawn is counted.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}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let rate = R% then Time = R years.
\begin{aligned}
=> \frac{1200*R*R}{100}=432 \\
=> R^2 = 36 \\
=> R = 6\%

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let sum be x and rate be r%
then, (x*r*15)/100 = 3x [important to note here is that simple interest will be 3x not 4x, beause 3x+x = 4x]

=> r = 20%

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

We need to calculate the total amount to be paid by him after 4 years, So it will be Principal + simple interest.

So,
\begin{aligned}
=> 500 + \frac{500*5*4}{100}
=> Rs. 600
\end{aligned}
