Question : 11 [SSC CHSL 2010]
The value of a property decreases every year at the rate of 5%. If its present value is Rs.4,11,540, what was its value 3 years ago ?
a) Rs.4,60,000
b) Rs.4,50,000
c) Rs.4,75,000
d) Rs.4,80,000
Answer »Answer: (d)
Using Rule 18,
Value of the property 3 years ago
= $P/{(1 - R/100)^T} = 411540/{(1 - 5/100)^3}$
= ${411540 × 20 × 20 × 20}/{19 × 19 × 19}$ = Rs.480000
Question : 12 [SSC DEO 2009]
A man received Rs.8,80,000 as his annual salary of the year 2007 which was 10% more than his annual salary in 2006. His annual salary in the year 2006 was
a) Rs.8,00,000
b) Rs.4,80,000
c) Rs.4,00,000
d) Rs.8,40,000
Answer »Answer: (a)
Using Rule 17,
Let the man's annual salary in 2006 be Rs.x.
${110x}/100$ = 880000
$x = {880000 × 100}/110$ = Rs.800000
Question : 13 [SSC CHSL 2010]
Present population of a village is 67600. It has been increasing annually at the rate of 4%. What was the population of the village two years ago ?
a) 63000
b) 62500
c) 64756
d) 65200
Answer »Answer: (b)
Using Rule 17,
Population of the village two years ago
= $P/(1 + R/100)^2 = 67600/(1 + 4/100)^2$
= ${67600 × 25 × 25}/{26 × 26}$ = 62500
Question : 14
The population of a city is 20000. It increases by 20% during the first year and 30% during the second year. The population after two years will be:
a) 40000
b) 32000
c) 31200
d) 30000
Answer »Answer: (c)
Population of city after two years
= $P(1 + R_1/100)(1 + R_2/100)$
= $20000(1 + 20/100)(1 + 30/100)$
= $20000 × 120/100 × 130/100$ = 31200
Question : 15
In a city, 40% of the people are illiterate and 60% are poor. Among the rich, 10% are illiterate. The percentage of the illiterate poor population is
a) 60
b) 36
c) 40
d) 50
Answer »Answer: (a)
Let the population of the city be 100.
Total illiterate people = 40
Poor people = 60; Rich people = 40
Illiterate rich people = ${40 × 10}/100$ = 4
Illiterate poor people = 40 – 4 = 36
Required percent = $36/60 × 100$ = 60%
