The following question based on simple interest topic of quantitative aptitude
(a) Rs.4000
(b) Rs.3000
(c) Rs.6500
(d) Rs.5000
The correct answers to the above question in:
Answer: (d)
Let amount invested in each company be Rs. x.
S.I. = ${\text"Principal × Rate × Time"/100$
According to the question,
${x × 15 × 5}/100 - {x × 12 × 4}/100$ = 1350
${75x}/100 - {48x}/100$ = 1350
${27x}/100$ = 1350
$x = {1350 × 100}/27$ = Rs. 5000
Using Rule 13
Here, $P_1 = Rs. P, R_1 = 12%, T_1$ = 4 years
$P_2 = Rs. P, R_2 = 15%, T_2$ = 5 years
S.I. = Rs. 1350
S.I.= ${P_2R_2T_2 - P_1R_1T_1}/100$
1350 = ${P × 15 × 5 - P × 12 × 4}/100$
135000 = 75 P - 48P
135000 = 75 P
P = Rs. 5000

Question : 1
Simple interest on a certain sum at a certain annual rate of interest is $16/25$ of the sum. If the number representing rate per cent and time in years be equal, then the rate of interest is
a) 11$1/2$%
b) 8%
c) 12$1/4$%
d) 12$1/2$%
Answer »Answer: (b)
Let the rate of interest be r% and principal be P.
According to the question.
${16P}/25 = {P × r × r}/100$
[Since, r = t numerically]
$r^2 = 1600/25$
r = $40/5$ = 8 %
Using Rule 5If Simple Interest (S.I.) becomes 'n' times of principal i.e.S.I. = P × n then.RT = n × 100
Here, n = $16/25$, R = T
Now R × R = $16/25$ × 100
$R^2 = 1600/25$
R = $√{1600/25} = 40/5$ = 8%
Question : 2
Prakash lends a part of Rs.20,000 at 8% simple interest and remaining at $4/3$% simple interest. His total income after a year was Rs.800. Find the sum lent at 8%.
a) Rs.12,000
b) Rs.8,000
c) Rs.10,000
d) Rs.6,000
Answer »Answer: (b)
Using Rule 1,
Amount lent at 8% rate of interest = Rs.x
Amount lent at $4/3$% rate of interest = Rs.(20,000 - x)
S.I. = ${\text"Principal × Rate × Time"/100$
${x × 8 × 1}/100 + {(20,000 - x) × 4/3 × 1}/100$ = 800
${2x}/25 + {20,000 - x}/75 = 800$
${6x + 20,000 - x}/75 = 800$
5x + 20,000 = 75 × 800 = 60,000
5x = 60,000-20,000 = 40,000
$x = {40,000}/5$ = Rs.8000
Question : 3
The rate of interest per annum at which the total simple interest of a certain capital for 1 year is equal to the total simple interest of the same capital at the rate of 5% per annum for 2 years, is
a) 10%
b) $5/2$%
c) 12.5%
d) 25%
Answer »Answer: (a)
Using Rule 1Simple Interest (S.I.)= ${\text"Principal × Rate × Time"/100$ orS.I. = ${\text"P × R × T"/100$P = ${\text"S.I." × 100}/\text"R × T"$, R = ${\text"S.I." × 100}/\text"P × T"$, T = ${\text"S.I." × 100}/\text"P × R"$ A = P + S.I. or S.I. = A - P
${P × r × 1}/100 = {P × 5 × 2}/100$
[Since,Capital is same in both cases]
r × 1 = 5 × 2 = 10%
