A4%

B4.50%

C6%

D8%

Explanation:

Given principle P=468.75, Rate of Intreset = R%
Total Amount received = Rs 500
=> Total Amount received = Simple Intrest + Principle.
=> 500 = [468.75*(20/12)*R]/100 + 468.75
=> 31.25=156.25*5R/100
=> R=4%

A sum of money becomes 2.5 times itself at 12.5% simple interest p.a. The period of investment is

A10 years

B14

C12 years

D9 years

Explanation:

Let the period is 'T' and Sum= 'P'.
As given money become 2.5.
=> 2.5 * P = P + S.I
=> S.I = 1.5 * P -------------- (1)
=> S.I = (P * T * 12.5)/100 -----------(2)
By eq. (1) and (2)
=> 1.5 * P = (P * T * 12.5)/100
=> T=12 years.

How long will it take for a sum of money to grow from Rs.1250 to Rs.10,000, if it is invested at 12.5% p.a simple interest?

A26 Years.

B35 Years.

C76 Years.

D56 Years.

Explanation:

Simple interest is given by the formula SI = (pnr/100), where p is the principal, n is the number of
years for which it is invested, r is the rate of interest per annum
In this case, Rs. 1250 has become Rs.10,000.
Therefore, the interest earned = (10,000 - 1250) = 8750.
8750 = [(1250*n*12.5)/100]
=> n = 700 / 12.5 = 56 years.

Simple interest on a certain sum is 16/25 of the sum. Find the rate percent and time, if both are numerically equal.

ARate = 8% & Time = 8 years

BRate = 8% & Time = 9 years

CRate = 18% & Time = 8 years

DNone of these

Explanation:

Let sum = X. Then S.I. = 16x/25
Let rate = R% and Time = R years.
Therefore, x * R * R/100 = 16x/25 or R^2 = 1600/25, R = 40/5 = 8
So, Rate = 8% and Time = 8 years.

A sum at simple interest at 13 1/2% per annum amounts to RS 2502.50 after 4 years. Find the sum.

ARs. 1425

BRs. 1225

CRs. 1625

DRs. 1565

Explanation:

Lets assume sum = x.
S.I. = (x * 27/2 * 4 * 1/100) = 27x/50
Therefore, amount = (x + 27x/50) = 77x/50
=> 77x/50 = 2502.50 or x = 2502.50 * 50 / 77 = 1625
So, sum = Rs. 1625
