Q:

Simple interest on a certain sum at 7% per annum for 4 years is Rs. 2415. What will be the compound interest on the same principal at 4% per annum in two years?

A) Rs. 704 B) Rs. 854
C) Rs. 893 D) Rs. 914
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 704

Explanation:

We know that,

S.I. = PTR100⇒ P = S.I x 100T x RAnd also,C.I = P1 + R100n- 1

From given data, P = Rs. 8625

Now, C.I  = 86251+41002-1= 862526252-1= 8625676625-1= 8625 x 51625C.I = Rs. 703.80

A) 360 B) 420
C) 240 D) 120
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 360

To find the LCM of 24, 36 and 40

24 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3

36 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3

40 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 

Now, LCM of 24, 36 and 40 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5

= 8 x 9 x 5

= 72 x 5

= 360

Q:

Let K and L be events on the same sample space, with P (K) = 0.8 and P (B) = 0.6. Are these two events are disjoint ?

A) TRUE B) FALSE
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) FALSE

Explanation:

These two events cannot be disjoint because P(K) + P(L) > 1.


P(AꓴB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(AꓵB).


An event is disjoint if P(A ꓵ B) = 0. If K and L are disjoint P(K ꓴ L) = 0.8 + 0.6 = 1.4


And Since probability cannot be greater than 1, these two mentioned events cannot be disjoint.
