Q:

The banker's discount on Rs. 1650 due a certain time hence is Rs. 165. Find the true discount and the banker's gain.

A) 15 B) 20
C) 18 D) 13
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 15

Explanation:

   Sum = [(B.D.xT.D.)/ (B.D.-T.D.)]

              = [(B.D.xT.D.)/B.G.]

T.D./B.G.  = Sum/ B.D.

   =1650/165

               =10

Thus, if B.G. is Re 1, T.D. = Rs. 10.

If B.D.is Rs. ll, T.D.=Rs. 10.

If B.D. is Rs. 165, T.D. = Rs. [(10/11)xl65]

            =Rs.150

 And, B.G. = Rs. (165 - 150) = Rs, 15.
