RYB (an abbreviation of red–yellow–blue) is a historical set of colors used in subtractive color mixing and is one commonly used set of primary colors. It is primarily used in art and design education, particularly painting.

RYB predates modern scientific color theory, which has determined that cyan, magenta, and yellow are the best set of three colorants to combine, for the widest range of high-chroma colors.

Q:

If the rate increases by 2%, the simple interest received on a sum of money increases by Rs. 108. If the time period is increased by 2 years, the simple interest on the same sum increases by Rs.180. The sum is ?

A) Rs. 540 B) Rs. 415
C) Rs. 404 D) Data is not sufficient
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Data is not sufficient

Explanation:

Let the sum be Rs. p, rate be R% p.a. and time be T years.

Then,

 P×T×(R+2)100-P×T×R100=108  2PT= 10800  ...... (1)

 And, 

 P×R×(T+2)100-P×R×T100=180   2PR = 18000 ......(2)

Clearly, from (1) and (2), we cannot find the value of p
So, the data is not sufficient.
