Q:

Five farmers have 7,9,11,13 & 14 apple trees respectively in their orchards. Last year each of them discovered that every tree in their own orchard yields exactly the same number of apples. Further, if the 3rd farmer gives one apple to the 1st and the 5th gives 3 to each of the 2nd & d 4th, they would all exactly have the same number of apples, what were the yields per tree in the orchards of the 3rd & 4th farmers ?

A) 17 & 9 B) 9 & 11
C) 9 & 9 D) 11 & 9
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 11 & 9

Explanation:

Let the number of apples in each tree of the 5 farmers be a, b, c, d,e respectively. Therefore total no of apples are 7a, 9b, 11c, 13d and 14e respectively.

Given,
7a+1 = 9b+3 = 11c-1 = 13d+3 = 14e-6 = x

9b+3 = 13d+3
===> 9b = 13d
so take b = 13 and d = 9

9b+3 = 9*13+3 = 120
ie, x=120

substituting
7a+1 = 120
7a = 119
a = 17

11c-1 = 120
11c = 121
c=11

14e-6 = 120
14e = 126
e = 9

Yields per tree in the orchards of d 3rd & 4th farmers= 11,9

Q:

A man invests Rs.5000 for 3 years at 5% p.a. compound interest reckoned yearly. Income tax at the rate of 20% on the interest earned is deducted at the end of each year. Find the amount at the end of the third year

A) Rs.5624.32 B) Rs.5423
C) Rs.5634 D) Rs.5976
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs.5624.32

Explanation:

 

 

 

5% is the rate of interest. 20% of the interest amount is paid as tax.

 

i.e  80% of the interest amount stays back.

 

 if we compute the rate of interest as 80% of 5% = 4% p.a., we will get the same value.

  

The interest accrued for 3 years in compound interest = 3 x simple interest on principal + 3 x interest on simple interest + 1 x interest on interest on interest.

 

= 3 x (200) + 3 x (8) + 1 x 0.32 =600 + 24 + 0.32 = 624.32

 

 

 

The amount at the end of 3 years = 5000 + 624.32 = 5624.32
