1. A sum of money becomes four times in 20 years at simple interest. Find the rate of interest.
1). Let the sum be ‘P’
Then, the sum after 20 years is ‘4P’
∴ Simple interest = 4P – P = 3P
Formula for S.I = (PRT / 100)
∴ 3P= (P × R × 20) / 100
R = (3P × 100) / (20 × P) = 15 %
Answer: A
2. In 4 year, Rs. 6000 amounts to Rs. 8000. In what time at the same rate, will Rs. 525 amounts to Rs. 700?Then, the sum after 20 years is ‘4P’
∴ Simple interest = 4P – P = 3P
Formula for S.I = (PRT / 100)
∴ 3P= (P × R × 20) / 100
R = (3P × 100) / (20 × P) = 15 %
Answer: A
2).Amount (A) = 8000; T = 4 yrs; Principal (P) = 6000
S.I = A – P = 8000 – 6000 =2000; R =?
Formula for S.I = (PRT / 100)
2000 = (6000 × R × 4) / 100
∴ R = 25/3 %
Now, we calculate T , for A = 700; P= 525;
S.I = A – P = 700 – 525 = 175
S.I = (525 × 25 / 3 × T) / 100
175 = (525 × 25 × T) / (100 × T)
Hence, T = 4 years
Answer: C
S.I = A – P = 8000 – 6000 =2000; R =?
Formula for S.I = (PRT / 100)
2000 = (6000 × R × 4) / 100
∴ R = 25/3 %
Now, we calculate T , for A = 700; P= 525;
S.I = A – P = 700 – 525 = 175
S.I = (525 × 25 / 3 × T) / 100
175 = (525 × 25 × T) / (100 × T)
Hence, T = 4 years
Answer: C
3. Swathi borrowed some money at the rate of 6% per annum for the first three years, at the rate of 9% per annum for the next five years and at the rate of 13% per annum for the period beyond eight years. If she pays a total interest of Rs.8160 at the end of eleven years, how much money did she borrow?
3). Let the sum borrowed is P,
Then, according to the question [(P × 6 × 3) / 100] + [(P × 9 × 5) / 100] + [(P × 13 × 3) / 100] = 8160
(18P + 45P + 39P)/100 = 8160
102P / 100 = 8160
∴ P = 8000
Hence, Swathi borrowed Rs. 8000
Answer: A
Then, according to the question [(P × 6 × 3) / 100] + [(P × 9 × 5) / 100] + [(P × 13 × 3) / 100] = 8160
(18P + 45P + 39P)/100 = 8160
102P / 100 = 8160
∴ P = 8000
Hence, Swathi borrowed Rs. 8000
Answer: A
4. If a certain sum at compound interest becomes double in 5 year, then in how many years, it will be 16 times at the same rate of interest?
4). Let Sum be X,
X becomes 2X in 5 years
2X becomes 4X in 10 years
4X becomes 8X in 15 years
Hence, 8X becomes 16X in 20 years
Answer: C
X becomes 2X in 5 years
2X becomes 4X in 10 years
4X becomes 8X in 15 years
Hence, 8X becomes 16X in 20 years
Answer: C
5. At simple interest, a sum becomes three times in 20 years. Find the time in which the sum will be double at the same rate of interest?
5). Let Sum = P, T= 20 yrs;
∴ S.I = 3P – P = 2P
Formula for S.I = (PRT) / 100
2P = (P × R × 20) / 100
R = 10%
To find Time (T),
∴ S.I = 2P – P = P
P = (P × 10 × T) / 100
Hence, T = 10 yrs.
Answer: B
∴ S.I = 3P – P = 2P
Formula for S.I = (PRT) / 100
2P = (P × R × 20) / 100
R = 10%
To find Time (T),
∴ S.I = 2P – P = P
P = (P × 10 × T) / 100
Hence, T = 10 yrs.
Answer: B
6. If the difference between the simple interest and compound interest on some amount at 20% pa for 3 years is 48, then what must be the principal amount?
6). Formula for calculating, difference between C.I and S.I for 3 years is,
P = D × 1003 / R2 (300 + R)
P= 48 × 1003 / 202 (300+20)
P = (48×100×100×100) / [400 (320)]
P= 375
Answer: B
P = D × 1003 / R2 (300 + R)
P= 48 × 1003 / 202 (300+20)
P = (48×100×100×100) / [400 (320)]
P= 375
Answer: B
7. A sum of money invested at compound interest amounts to Rs. 800 in 3 years and Rs.882 in 5 years. What is the rate of interest?
7). Formula for calculating Amount (A) in C.I
A= P (1+R/100)T
Hence, P [1 + (R/100)]3 = 800 …..(1)
P [1 + (R/100)]5 = 882 ….(2)
Since, (2)/(1) = P [1 + (R/100)]5 / P [1 + (R/100)]3 = 882/800
[1 + (R/100)]2 = 441/400
[1 + (R/100)] = √(441 / 400) = 21 / 20
∴ R = (1/20) × 100 = 5%
Answer: C
A= P (1+R/100)T
Hence, P [1 + (R/100)]3 = 800 …..(1)
P [1 + (R/100)]5 = 882 ….(2)
Since, (2)/(1) = P [1 + (R/100)]5 / P [1 + (R/100)]3 = 882/800
[1 + (R/100)]2 = 441/400
[1 + (R/100)] = √(441 / 400) = 21 / 20
∴ R = (1/20) × 100 = 5%
Answer: C
8. Simple interest for the sum of Rs.1500 is Rs.50 in 4 years and Rs.80 in 8 years. Find the rate of SI?
8). S.I = (PRT / 100)
According to the question, = [(1500 × R × 8) / 100] - [(1500 × R × 4) / 100] = 80 – 50 (12000R – 6000R) / 100 = 30
6000R / 100 = 30
R = 30/60 = ½ = 0.5%
Answer: A
According to the question, = [(1500 × R × 8) / 100] - [(1500 × R × 4) / 100] = 80 – 50 (12000R – 6000R) / 100 = 30
6000R / 100 = 30
R = 30/60 = ½ = 0.5%
Answer: A
9. Simple interest on an amount after 24 months at the rate of 2% per quarter is 960. What is the amount?
9). S.I = (PRT) / 100
Hence, P = (S.I × 100) / (R×T)
P = (960 × 100) / (8×2) = 6000
Answer: C
Hence, P = (S.I × 100) / (R×T)
P = (960 × 100) / (8×2) = 6000
Answer: C
10. At what rate percent per annum will a sum of money double in 8 years?
10). Let P= X, S.I =X, T =8 yrs, R=?
R = (S.I × 100) / (P×T) = (x ×100) / (x × 8) = 12.5%
Answer: C
R = (S.I × 100) / (P×T) = (x ×100) / (x × 8) = 12.5%
Answer: C
