Correct Answer: 50
Explanation:
T.D. =(B.G. x 100)/ (R x T)= Rs. (6 x 100)/( 12 x 1) = Rs. 50.
Correct Answer: 4 months
Explanation:
S.I. on Rs. 1800 = T.D. on Rs. 1872.
P.W. of Rs. 1872 is Rs. 1800.
Rs. 72 is S.I. on Rs. 1800 at 12%.
Time =[(100 x 72)/ (12x1800)]year
=1/3year = 4 months.
Correct Answer: 129
Explanation:
B.G. = S.I. on T.D.
= Rs.(120 x 15 x 1/2 x 1/100)
= Rs. 9.
(B.D.) - (T.D.) = Rs. 9.
B.D. = Rs. (120 + 9) = Rs. 129.
Correct Answer: 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.
Correct Answer: 5%
Explanation:
Let T.D. be Re. 1.
Then, B.D. = Rs.11/10= Rs. 1.10.
Sum = Rs. (1.10*1)/(1.10-1) = Rs. (110/10)= Rs. 11.
S.I. on Rs. 11 for 2 years is Rs. 1.10
Rate = [(100 x 1.10)/(11 x 2 )]% = 5%.
Correct Answer: 1020
Explanation:
T.D. =(B.G*100)/(R*T)=Rs(270*100)/(12*3) = Rs. 750.
B.D. = Rs.(750 + 270) = Rs. 1020.
Correct Answer: Rs. 5000
Explanation:
T = 4 years
R = 5%
Banker's Gain, BG = Rs.200
=>PW = Rs.5000
Correct Answer: Sum = Rs.400 and Time = 2.5 years
Explanation:
BD = Rs.100
TD = Rs.80
R = 10%
BD = Simple interest on the face value of the bill for unexpired time= FTR/100
=> T = 2.5 years
Correct Answer: 5880
Explanation:
Face value of the bill = Rs. 6000.
Date on which the bill was drawn = July 14 at 5 months. Nominally due date = December 14.
Legally due date = December 17.
Date on which the bill was discounted = October 5.
Unexpired time : Oct. Nov. Dec.
26 + 30 + 17 = 73 days =1/ 5Years
B.D. = S.I. on Rs. 6000 for 1/5 year
= Rs. (6000 x 10 x1/5 x1/100)= Rs. 120.
T.D. = Rs.[(6000 x 10 x1/5)/(100+(10*1/5))]
=Rs.(12000/102)=Rs. 117.64.
B.G. = (B.D.) - (T.D.) = Rs. (120 - 117.64) = Rs. 2.36.
Money received by the holder of the bill = Rs. (6000 - 120) = Rs. 5880.
Correct Answer: 1320
Explanation:
Sum = (B.D * T.D) / (B.D) -(T.D)
= (120 * 110) / (120 -110)
= 1320
