Q 1 - How crunch simple interest will Rs 2000 win in year and a half at 6% for every annum?
S.I = Rs. (2000*18/12*6/100) = Rs. 180.
Q 2 - A man contributes 1/3 of his capital at 7% p.a. 1/4 at 8% p.a. what's more, the rest of 10% p.a. In the event that his yearly wage is Rs 561, the capital is:
Let capital be rs. x. then, (x/3*7/100*1) +(x/4 * 8/100*1) + {x-(x/3+x/4)}*100*1= 561 => 7x/300 +x/50 +5x/120 = 561 =>14x+12x +25 x = 336600 => 51x = 336600 => x= 6600.
Q 3 - On a sure aggregate, the basic simple interest toward the end of 25/2 years gets to be 3/4 of the whole. What is the rate percent per annum?
Let the sum be Rs. x. Then, S.I = Rs. 3x/4, time = 25/2 years. ∴ Rate = (100*3x/4 *1/x*2/25) % P.a. = 6%
Q 4 - A man loses Rs 55.50 yearly when the yearly rate of interest tumbles from 11.5% to 10%. His capital is:
Let the capital be Rs. x. then, (x*23/2*1/100*1) ?(x*10*1/100*1) = 55.50 => 23x/200 ?x/10 =111/2 => 23x-20x =11100 => 3x= 11100 => x = 3700 Hence, the capital is Rs. 3700.
Q 5 - Anand took some advance at 12% P.a. simple interest and paid back Rs. 17584 toward the end of 3 years 4 months. What amount of cash did he acquire?
Let the money borrowed be Rs. x. Then, x+x* 12/100* 10/3 = 17584 => (x+2x/5) = 17584 => 7x/5 = 17584 => x= (17584*5/7) = 12560. Hence, the money borrowed is Rs. 12560.
Q 6 - What would be the simple interest obtained on an amount of Rs 6535 at the rate of 10% after 6 years?
Simple Interest = PTR/100 = 6535 * 6 * 10/100 = Rs 3921
Q 7 - In how much time would the simple interest on a certain sum be 0.125 times the principal at 10% per annum?
Let sum be z. Then, S.I. = 0.125z = 1z⁄8 Rate = 10 Time = (100 x z⁄z x 8 x 10) = 5⁄4 years = 11⁄4
Q 8 - Peter invested an amount of Rs. 12000 at rate of interest of 10% p.a. simple interest and another amount at the rate of 20% p.a. simple interest. The total interest earned at the end of one year on the total amount invested became 14 p.c.p.a. Find the total amount invested?
Let the second number be z. then,
(12000 x 10 x 1⁄100 + z x 20 x 1⁄100) = ((12000 + z) x 14 x 1⁄100) = 12000 + 20z = 168000 + 14z
= 6z = 48000
z = 8000
Therefore Total investment = Rs. (12000 + 8000) = 20000
Q 9 - At what rate percent per annum will a whole of cash twofold in 8 years?
Let standard be Rs. P. at that point, S.I = Rs. P and time = 8 year ∴ Rate = (100*S.I)/P.T = (100*156/600*2) % p.a. = 13% p.a.
