The following question based on compound interest topic of quantitative aptitude
(a) Rs.625
(b) Rs.600
(c) Rs.650
(d) Rs.675
The correct answers to the above question in:
Answer: (d)
Using Rule 1,
A = P$(1 + R/100)^T$
2916 = $x(1 + 8/100)^2$
2916 = $x(27/25)^2$
$x = {2916 × 25 × 25}/{27 × 27}$ = Rs.2500
S.I. = ${P × R × T}/100$
= ${2500 × 9 × 3}/100$ = Rs.675

Question : 1
If the compound interest on a sum for 2 years at 12$1/2$% per annum is Rs.510, the simple interest on the same sum at the same rate for the same period of time is :
a) Rs.460
b) Rs.400
c) Rs.450
d) Rs.480
Answer »Answer: (d)
C.I. = P$[(1 + R/100)^T - 1]$
510 = P$[(1 + 25/200)^2 - 1]$
510 = P$(81/64 - 1)$
P = ${510 × 64}/17$ = 1920
S.I. = ${1920 × 2 × 25}/{100 × 2}$ = Rs.480
Using Rule 10,
Here, C.I. = Rs.510, R = 12$1/2$%, S.I. = ?
C.I. = S.I.$(1 + R/200)$
$510 = S.I.(1 + 25/400)$
S.I. = ${510 × 400}/425$ = Rs.480
Question : 2
If the compound interest on a sum for 2 years at 12$1/2$ p.a is Rs.510, the simple interest on the same sum at the same rate for the same period of time is
a) Rs.480
b) Rs.400
c) Rs.460
d) Rs.450
Answer »Answer: (a)
Principal = Rs.P (let)
C.I. = P$[(1 + R/100)^T - 1]$
510 = P$[(1 + 25/200)^2 - 1]$
510 = P$[(1 + 1/8)^2 - 1]$
510 = P$[(9/8)^2 - 1]$
510 = P$(81/64 - 1)$
510 = P$({81 - 64}/64)$
510 = ${17P}/64$
P = ${510 × 64}/17$ = Rs.1920
S.I. = $\text"Principal × Time × Rate"/100$
= ${1920 × 2 × 25}/{100 × 2}$ = Rs.480
Using Rule 10,
Here, C.I. = Rs.510, R = 12$1/2$%, S.I. = ?
C.I. = S.I.$(1 + R/200)$
510 = S.I.$(1 + 25/400)$
510 = S.I.$(425/400)$
S.I. = ${510 × 400}/425$ = Rs.480
Question : 3
If the compound interest on a sum of money for 3 years at the rate of 5% per annum is Rs.252.20, the simple interest on the same sum at the same rate and for the same time is
a) Rs.250
b) Rs.220
c) Rs.245
d) Rs.240
Answer »Answer: (d)
Using Rule 1,If A = Amount, P = Principal, r = Rate of Compound Interest (C.I.), n = no. of years then,A=P$(1 + r/100)^n$, C.I. = A - PC.I. = P$[(1 + r/100)^n - 1]$
Suppose principal be x
$x((1 + 5/100)^3 - 1) = 252.20$
$x((21/20)^3 - 1)$ = 252.20
$x({21 × 21 × 21 - 20 × 20 × 20}/{20 × 20 × 20})$ = 252.20
$x 1261/8000$ = 252.20
x = ${252.20 × 8000}/1261$ = 1600
SI = ${1600 × 5 × 3}/100$ = Rs.240
Question : 4
If the compound interest on a certain sum for 2 years at 4% p.a. is Rs.102, the simple interest at the same rate of interest for two years would be
a) Rs.100
b) Rs.200
c) Rs.150
d) Rs.50
Answer »Answer: (a)
If the sum be P, then
C.I. = P$[(1 + R/100)^T - 1]$
102 = $[(1 + 4/100)^2 - 1]$
102 = P$[(26/25)^2 - 1]$
102 = P$(676/625 - 1)$
102 = P$({676 - 625}/625)$
102 = P × $51/625$
P = ${102 × 625}/51$ = Rs.1250
S.I. = ${1250 × 2 × 4}/100$ = Rs.100
Question : 5
At a certain rate per annum, the simple interest on a sum of money for one year is Rs.260 and the compound interest on the same sum for two years is Rs.540.80. The rate of interest per annum is
a) 10%
b) 4%
c) 8%
d) 6%
Answer »Answer: (c)
Using Rule 1,If A = Amount, P = Principal, r = Rate of Compound Interest (C.I.), n = no. of years then,A=P$(1 + r/100)^n$, C.I. = A - PC.I. = P$[(1 + r/100)^n - 1]$
Let the principal be x and rate of interest be r% per annum. Now,
S.I. = $\text"Principal × Time × Rate"/100$
260 = ${x × r}/100$ ....(i)
C.I.= P$[(1 + R/100)^T - 1]$
540.80 = $x[(1 + r/100)^2 - 1]$
540.80 = $x[1 + {2r}/100 + r^2/10000 - 1]$
540.80 = ${2xr}/100 + {xr^2}/10000$
540.80 = 2 × 260 + ${260 . r}/100$
260r = 54080 - 52000
260r = 2080
r = $2080/260$ = 8 %
Question : 6
A certain amount of money earns Rs.540 as Simple Interest in 3 years. If it earns a Compound Interest of Rs.376.20 at the same rate of interest in 2 years, find the amount (in Rupees).
a) 2100
b) 1600
c) 2000
d) 1800
Answer »Answer: (c)
S.I. for 2 years
= $2/3$ × 540 = Rs.360
C.I. - S.I.
= 376.20 - 360 = Rs.16.20
Rate of interest
= ${16.20}/180$ × 100 = 9% per annum
Principal = $\text"S.I. × 100"/\text"Time × Rate"$
= ${180 × 100}/{1 × 9}$ = Rs.2000
