Q:

On simple interest an amount becomes Rs. 812 in two years and Rs. 924 in four years. What is the rate of interest on that amount?

A) 7.2% B) 8%
C) 8.5% D) 9.3%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 8%

Explanation:

We know, 

S.I = PTR/100 where P = principal amount, T = time, R = rate of interest

Here in the given data,

Interest for two years S.I = 924 - 812 = Rs. 112

Now, Principal amount P = 812 - 112 = Rs. 700 

Now,

R = S.I x 100/PT

R = 112 x 100/700 x 2

R = 11200/1400

R = 8%

 

Hence, the rate of interest R = 8%.

A) 3 & 9 B) 6 & 19
C) 7 & 24 D) 5 & 18
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 7 & 24

Explanation:

7 boxes & 24 Balls.
Let, n = No. of boxes ; m = No. of fruits
3n+3 = m---------->(1)
4(n-1)= m---------->(2)
=>4n-4 = 3n+3;
=>4n-3n = 4+3
n = 7
Put n=7 in eqn(1)
=> 3(7)+3 = m
21+3 = m
m = 24;

Number of boxes = 7 and fruits = 24
