Q:

The compound interest on Rs. 30,000 at 7% per annum is Rs. 4347. The period (in years) is

A) 2years	B) 3years
C) 4years	D) 5years

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 2years

Explanation:

Amount = Rs(30000 + 4347) = Rs.34347.

Let the time be n years. Then,

$30000 {[1 + \frac{7}{100}]}^{n} = 34347$

$\Leftrightarrow$ ${(\frac{107}{100})}^{n} = \frac{34347}{30000} = \frac{11449}{10000} = {(\frac{107}{100})}^{2}$

n= 2years.

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 48

Explanation:

In the given puzzle the logic is

2 x 1 + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3

3 x 2 + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8

4 x 3 + 3 = 12 + 3 = 15

5 x 4 + 4 = 20 + 4 = 24

6 x 5 + 5 = 30 + 5 = 35

Q:

How many rectangles can be drawn with 36 cm as the perimeter, given that the sides are positive integers in cm?

A) 8	B) 9
C) 10	D) 11

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 9

Explanation:

Perimeter = 36

⇒ 2 ( l + w ) = 36

⇒ l + w = 18

Since length and width are positive integers in centimeters.

Therefore, possible dimensions are :

( 1, 17 )cm , ( 2, 16 ) cm , ( 3, 15 ) cm, (4 , 14) cm, ( 5,13) cm, ( 6, 12) cm , ( 7, 11) cm, ( 8, 10 ) cm, ( 9, 9) cm.

Hence, there are 9 rectangles.

Q:

Compound interest on a certain sum of money at 20% per annum for 2 years is Rs.5995. What is the SI on the same money at 8% per annum for 6 years ?

A) Rs. 5989	B) Rs. 6540
C) Rs. 7844	D) Rs. 6789

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 6540

Explanation:

Given C.I = 5984, R = 20% , T = 2yrs

$C . I = P [(1 + {(\frac{20}{100})}^{2}) - 1]$

5984 = $C.I=P\left [ \left ( 1&amp;plus;\left ( \frac{20}{100}\right )^{2} \right )-1 \right ]$

=> P = (5995x25)/11

P = Rs. 13625

Now S.I = PTR/100

SI = (13625 x 8 x 6)/100 = Rs. 6540
