I. The total simple interest was Rs. 7000 after 7 years.
II. The total of sum and simple interest was double of the sum after 5 years.

A) I alone sufficient while II alone not sufficient to answer B) II alone sufficient while I alone not sufficient to answer
C) Either I or II alone sufficient to answer D) Both I and II are necessary to answer
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Both I and II are necessary to answer

Explanation:

Let the sum be Rs. x.

I  gives, S.I. = Rs. 7000 and T = 7 years.

II gives, Sum + S.I. for 5 years = 2 x Sum Sum = S.I. for 5 years.

Now, S.I. for 7 years = Rs. 7000.

therefore, S.I. for 1 year =  Rs. 1000.

Thus, I and II both are needed to get the answer.

Q:

The circumferences of two circles are 264 meters and 352 meters. Find the difference between the areas of the larger and the smaller circles  ?

A) 2413 sq.m B) 1234 sq.m
C) 4312 sq.m D) 2143 sq.m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 4312 sq.m

Explanation:

Let the radii of the smaller and the larger circles be 's' m and 'l' m respectively.  

 2πs = 264 and 2πl = 352  

 

 s = 2642π and l = 3522π   

Difference between the areas =πl2-πs2   

  = π1762π2-1322π2 

  = 1762π-1322π  

  = (176 - 132)(176 + 132) / π  

  = (44 x 308) / (22/7) = 4312 sq.m
