A) Rs. 1100 B) Rs. 5500

Then, S.I is Rs. 50 and time = 5 years. 

 R = 100×50100×5= 10% p.a.

 

Now, p = Rs. 12,000 , T = 3 years and R = 10% p.a.


C.I. = Rs. 12000×1+101003-1= Rs. 3972

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.
