Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: BD Rs 121, BG Rs 11
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
As before, let x = r * t. Then PW = S / (1 + x), TD = S * x / (1 + x), BD = S * x, and BG = BD − TD = S * x^2 / (1 + x). With PW and TD given, all quantities follow directly.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
From PW = S / (1 + x) and TD = S * x / (1 + x) = PW * x, we get x = TD / PW = 110 / 1100 = 0.1. Hence BD = S * x and BG = BD − TD.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Verification / Alternative check:
TD = Sx/(1 + x) = 1210*0.1/1.1 = 110 ✔️; BG = Sx^2/(1 + x) = 1210*0.01/1.1 = 11 ✔️.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Other pairs do not satisfy both the TD identity and the BG definition simultaneously.
Common Pitfalls:
Confusing TD with BD; using S instead of PW to compute x.
Final Answer:
BD = Rs 121 and BG = Rs 11
