Q:

The difference between the simple interest on a certain sum at the rate of 10%per annum for 2 years and compound interest which is compounded every 6 months is Rs.124.05. what is the principal sum

A) Rs.6000	B) Rs.8000
C) Rs.12000	D) none of these

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs.8000

Explanation:

Compound Interest on P at 10% for 2 years when interest is compounded half-yearly

= $P {(1 + \frac{\frac{R}{2}}{100})}^{2 T} - P = P {(1 + \frac{1}{20})}^{4} - P = P {(\frac{21}{20})}^{4} - P$

Simple Interest on P at 10% for 2 years = $\frac{P R T}{100} = \frac{P \times 10 \times 2}{100} = \frac{P}{5}$

Given that difference between compound interest and simple interest = 124.05

$P * {(\frac{21}{20})}^{4} - P - \frac{P}{5} = 124.05$

=> $P [{(\frac{21}{20})}^{4} - 1 - \frac{1}{5}] = 124.05$

P=8000

Productivity = $\frac{Total\: Production}{Area\: of\: agricultural\: land}$

1.The productivity of which state is the maximum ?

1. Bihar 2. Haryana 3. Punjab 4. UP 5. MP

2.The production of which state is the maximum ?

1. Bihar 2. MP 3. Haryana 4. UP 5. Punjab

3.The prodution of wheat in punjab is what per cent more than the production of Maize in odisha ?

1. 350% 2. 250% 3. 300% 4. 200% 5. 400%

4.What is the ratio of the production of Rice in Bihar to the production of Wheat in Haryana ?

1. 2:3 2. 3:2 3. 2:1 4. 1:1 5. 1:2

5.If MP exports 40% of Rice at the rate of Rs.30 per kg and UP exports 30% of Rice at the rate of Rs.32 per kg, then what is the ratio of the income from the exports ?

1. 65:48 2. 31:42 3. 43:54 4. 57:62 5. 1:2

Answer

1. Answer : 2

Explanation : Productivity = Total production/area of Agr.land

Productivity of UP = [ (35000+30000+25000) / (30/100) ] = 300000

Productivity of MP = [ (30000+37500+27500) / (25/100) ] = 380000

Productivity of Bihar = [ (22500+27500+25000) / (20/100) ] = 375000

Productivity of Odisha = [ (22500+15000+10000) / (5/100) ]= 950000

Productivity of Haryana = [ (30000+25000+35000) / (8/100) ] = 1125000

Productivity of Punjab = [ (40000+35000+30000) / (12/100) ] = 875000

The Productivity of Haryana is the maximum.

2. Answer : 5

Explanation : Production of Punjab is maximum = 105000 tonnes

3. Answer : 3

Explanation : Production of Wheat in Punjab = 40000 tones

Production of Maize in Odisha = 10000 tones

Required % = (40000 - 10000)/100 = 300%

4. Answer : 4

Explanation : The ratio of prodution of Rice in Bihar to the production of Wheat in Haryana = 25000 tonnes : 25000 tonnes = 1 : 1

5. Answer : 1

Explanation : Income of MP from export of 40% of Rice at the rate of Rs.30 per kg = Rs.39crore

Income of UP from export of 30% of Rice at the rate of Rs.32 per kg = Rs.28.8 crore

Required ratio = 39 : 28.8 = 390 : 288 = 65 : 48
