A sum of money invested at compound interest to Rs. 800 in 3 years and to Rs 840 in 4 years. The rate on interest per annum is.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
C.I. = (4000 \times(1+\frac{10}{100})^2 - 4000) \\
= 4000 * \frac{11}{10} * \frac{11}{10} - 4000 \\
= 840 \\

\text{So S.I. = } \frac{840}{2} = 420\\

\text{So Sum = } \frac{S.I. * 100}{R*T} \\
= \frac{420 * 100}{3*8} \\
= Rs 1750
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Please remember, when we have to calculate C.I. quarterly then we apply following formula if n is the number of years

\begin{aligned}
Amount = P(1+\frac{\frac{R}{4}}{100})^{4n}
\end{aligned}

Principal = Rs.16,000;
Time=9 months = 3 quarters;
Rate = 20%, it will be 20/4 = 5%

So lets solve this question now,

\begin{aligned}
Amount = 16000(1+\frac{5}{100})^3 \\
= 18522\\
C.I = 18522 - 16000 = 2522
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
(25000 \times (1 + \frac{12}{100})^3) \\
=> 25000\times\frac{28}{25}\times\frac{28}{25}\times\frac{28}{25} \\
=> 35123.20 \\
\end{aligned}

So Compound interest will be 35123.20 - 25000
= Rs 10123.20

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

S.I. on Rs 800 for 1 year = 40

Rate = (100*40)/(800*1) = 5%

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
S.I. = \frac{P*R*T}{100} \\
P = \frac{50*100}{5*2} = 500\\

Amount = 500(1+\frac{5}{100})^2 \\
500(\frac{21}{20} * \frac{21}{20}) \\
= 551.25 \\

C.I. = 551.25 - 500 = 51.25


\end{aligned}
