The difference between the interest received from two different bank on Rs. 500 for 2 year is Rs. 2.50. The difference between their rates is?

Correct Answer: 0.25%

Explanation:

Let the rates be R1% and R2%.
Then, (500 x R1 x 2)/ 100 - (500 x R2 x 2)/ 100 = 2.5
⇒ 10(R1 - R2) = 2.5
∴ Req difference = R1 - R2 = 0.25%
