Correct Answer: 600
Correct Answer: 480
Correct Answer: 1050
Correct Answer: Quantity I > Quantity II
Explanation:
Quantity I=15% of Principle=4800
Principle=Rs.32000
Quantity II=12.36% of Principle =3708
Principle=Rs.30000
Hence Quantity I > Quantity II
Correct Answer: Rs 2100
Correct Answer: 200
Explanation:
[(X+1400)*8*2/100] - [(X*8*1)/100]= 240
0.16X + 14*16 - 0.08X = 240
0.08X = 240 - 224
0.08X = 16
X = Rs. 200
Correct Answer: Rs. 2500
Correct Answer: ? 200
Correct Answer: 11,250
Explanation:
SI = PTR/100
SI = PX100/100
SI = P
So, Amount=P+SI=2P?22500 = 2P?P = 11250
Correct Answer: 6 times
Explanation:
A = P(1 + rt/100)
So, A= 3P (it becomes triples)
3P = P(1 + 8r/100)?r = 25%
Now, when t = 20
?A = P(1 + 25*20/100)
?A = P(1+ 5)?A = 6P
So, it becomes 6 times.
