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

Q:

Simple interest on a certain sum is 16/25 of the sum. Find the rate percent and time, If both are numerically equal.

A) Rate = 7% and Time = 7 years. B) Rate = 8% and Time = 8 years.
C) Rate = 6% and Time = 6 years. D) Rate = 5% and Time = 5 years.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rate = 8% and Time = 8 years.

Explanation:

Let sum = X. Then S.I = 16x/25

 

Let rate = R% and Time = R years.

 

Therefore,  (x * R * R)/100 = 16x/25   =>  R = 40/5 = 8

 

Therefore, Rate = 8% and Time = 8 years.
