Q:

A certain sum is invested at simple interest at 18% p.a. for two years instead of investing at 12% p.a. for the same time period. Therefore the interest received is more by Rs. 840. Find the sum  ?

A) Rs. 5858 B) Rs. 8800
C) Rs. 7000 D) Rs. 6350
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 7000

Explanation:

Let the sum be Rs. S.
(S x 18 x 2)/100 - (S x 12 x 2)/100 = 840 => 36S/100 - 24S/100 = 840

=> 12S/100 = 840 => S = 7000.

The average of the ages of Sumit, Krishna and Rishabh is 43 years and the average of the ages of Sumit, Rishabh and Rohit is 49 years. If Rohit is 54 years old, what is Krishna'a age ? 

A) 48 yrs B) 42 yrs
C) 40 yrs D) 36 yrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 36 yrs

Explanation:

Let present ages of Sumit=w, Krishna=x, Rishabh=y and Rohit=z , then
w+x+y = 43x3 = 129 ---(i) and
w+y+z = 49x3 = 147 ---(ii)
Subtracting (i) from (ii), (w+y+z) - (w+x+y)=147 -129 , z- x =18 ---(iii)
Given Rohit's age => z = 54, so from (iii), x = 54-18 = 36
