  • Options

  • B. Rs .52
  • C. Rs . 60
  • D. None of these

  • Correct Answer
  • Rs . 62 

    Explanation

    Amount = Rs. 1860.
    True discount = Rs. 60
    ? Present worth = Rs. 1860 - Rs. 60 = Rs. 1800
    S.I. on Rs. 1800 for 8 months = Rs. 60
    ? Rate = [(100 x 60) / (1800 x 2/3)]% = 5%
    ? Banker's discount = (1860 x 5 x 2/3)/100 = Rs. 62
