Q:

If each side of a square is increased by 25%, find the percentage change in its area.

A) 56.25%	B) 36.25%
C) 16.25%	D) 12.25%

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 56.25%

Explanation:

Let each side of the square be a. Then, area = . $a^{2}$
New side = $\frac{125 a}{100} = \frac{5 a}{4}$ . New area = ${(\frac{5 a}{4})}^{2}$ = $(\frac{25 a^{2}}{16})$

Increase in area = $\frac{25 a^{2}}{16} - a^{2} = \frac{9 a^{2}}{16}$
Increase% = $[\frac{9 a^{2}}{16} * \frac{1}{a^{2}} * 100]$ % = 56.25%.

Q:

If the compound interest on a certain sum at $16 \frac{2}{3}$ % to 3 years is Rs.1270, find the simple interest on the same sum at the same rate and f or the same period.

A) 1080	B) 1090
C) 1180	D) 1109

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1080

Explanation:

Let the sum be Rs. x. Then,

$C . I = [x * {(\frac{50}{300 * 100})}^{3} - x] = (\frac{343 x}{216} - x) = \frac{127 x}{216}$

$\Leftrightarrow \frac{127 x}{216} = 1270$

$x = 2160$

Thus, the sum is Rs. 2160

$S . I = R s . [2160 * \frac{50}{3} * 3 * \frac{1}{100}] = R s 1080$
