Q:

A sum was put at simple interest at a certain rate for 3 years. Had it been put at 2% higher rate, it would have fetched Rs 360 more. Find the sum.

A) Rs.4000 B) Rs.9000
C) Rs.5000 D) Rs.6000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Rs.6000

Explanation:

Let sum = P and original rate = R. Then

[(P * (R+2) * 3)/100] - [ (P * R * 3)/100] = 360

3P*(R+2) - 3PR = 36000

3PR + 6P - 3PR = 36000

6P = 36000

P = 6000

Answer

1. Answer : 2


Explanation : Productivity = Total production/area of Agr.land 


Productivity of UP = [ (35000+30000+25000) / (30/100) ] = 300000  


Productivity of MP = [ (30000+37500+27500) / (25/100) ] = 380000  


Productivity of Bihar = [ (22500+27500+25000) / (20/100) ] = 375000 


Productivity of Odisha = [ (22500+15000+10000) / (5/100) ]= 950000  


Productivity of Haryana = [ (30000+25000+35000) / (8/100) ] = 1125000  


Productivity of Punjab = [ (40000+35000+30000) / (12/100) ] = 875000 


The Productivity of Haryana is the maximum.  


 


 


2. Answer : 5  


Explanation : Production of Punjab is maximum = 105000 tonnes 


 


 


3. Answer : 3 


Explanation : Production of Wheat in Punjab = 40000 tones


Production of Maize in Odisha = 10000 tones


Required % = (40000 - 10000)/100 = 300% 


 


 


4. Answer : 4 


Explanation : The ratio of prodution of Rice in Bihar to the production of Wheat in Haryana = 25000 tonnes : 25000 tonnes = 1 : 1  


 


 


5. Answer : 1  


Explanation : Income of MP from export of 40% of Rice at the rate of Rs.30 per kg = Rs.39crore


Income of UP from export of 30% of Rice at the rate of Rs.32 per kg = Rs.28.8 crore 


Required ratio = 39 : 28.8 = 390 : 288 = 65 : 48
