At what rate percent per annum will the simple interest on a sum of money be 2/5 of the amount in 10 years

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

We can get SI of 3 years = 12005 - 9800 = 2205

SI for 5 years = (2205/3)*5 = 3675 [so that we can get principal amount after deducting SI]

Principal = 12005 - 3675 = 6125

So Rate = (100*3675)/(6125*5) = 12%

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let sum = x
Time = 10 years.
S.I = 2x /5, [as per question]
Rate =( (100 * 2x) / (x*5*10))%
=> Rate = 4%

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the principal be P and rate be R

then

\begin{aligned}
\text{ratio = } [\frac{(\frac{P*R*6}{100})}{(\frac{P*R*9}{100})}] \\

= \frac{6PR}{9PR} = 2:3
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{S.I.} = \frac{P*R*T}{100} \\
=> P = \frac{S.I. * 100}{R*T} \\
=> P = \frac{5400 * 100}{12*3} = Rs 15000
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Two things need to give attention in this question, First we need to calculate gain for 1 year only.
Second, where we take money at some interest and lends at other, then we use to subtract each other to get result in this type of question. Lets solve this Simple Interest question now.

\begin{aligned}
\text{Gain in 2 year = } \\
[(5000 \times \frac{25}{4} \times \frac{2}{100})-(\frac{5000 \times 4 \times 2}{100})] \\
= (625 - 400) = 225 \\
\text{ So gain for 1 year = }\\
\frac{225}{2} = 112.50
\end{aligned}
