A) Rs. 2 B) Rs. 1.25
C) Rs. 2.25 D) Rs. 0.5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 1.25

Explanation:

F = Rs. 8100

R = 5%

T = 3 months = 1/4 years

 

BD=FTR100=8100×14×5100=Rs.101.25

 

TD=FTR100+TR=8100×14×5100+14×5=Rs.100

Therefore BD - TD = 101.25-100 = Rs.1.25

Q:

A team of 8 students goes on an excursion, in two cars, of which one can seat 5 and the other only 4. In how many ways can they travel?

A) 126 B) 240
C) 120 D) 260
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 126

Explanation:

There are 8 students and the maximum capacity of the cars together is 9.

 

We may divide the 8 students as follows

 

Case I: 5 students in the first car and 3 in the second Or

 

Case II: 4 students in the first car and 4 in the second

 

Hence,     in Case I: 8 students are divided into groups of 5 and 3 in 8C3 ways.

 

Similarly, in Case II: 8 students are divided into two groups of 4 and 4 in 8C4 ways.

 

Therefore, the total number of ways in which 8 students can travel is

 

8C3+8C4 = 56 + 70 = 126.
