  • Question
  • In what time will the simple interest on Rs 400 at 10% per annum be the same as the simple interest on Rs 1000 for 4 year at 4 % per annum?


  • Options
  • A. 2 yrs
  • B. 3 yrs
  • C. 4 yrs
  • D. 6 yrs

  • Correct Answer
  • 4 yrs 

    Explanation

    Here , P= Rs 1000
    T= 4 yrs
    R= 4 %
    where, P= Principal
    T= Time
    R= Rate
    Since , Simple Interest on Rs 1000=(1000 × 4 × 4)/100
    = Rs 160

    now, simple interest=Rs 160
    P = Rs 400
    R = 10 %
    then, T=(100 × SI)/P × R
    = (100 × 160)/(400 × 10)
    = 4 yr
