Sachin borrows Rs. 5000 for 2 years at 4% p.a. simple interest. He immediately lends money to Rahul at 25/4% p.a. for 2 years. Find the gain of one year by Sachin.

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 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}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let rate = R% then Time = R years.
\begin{aligned}
=> \frac{1200*R*R}{100}=432 \\
=> R^2 = 36 \\
=> R = 6\%

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Lets assume that three parts are x, y and z.
Simple Interest, R = 5%

From question we can conclude that, x + interest (on x) for 2 years = y + interest (on y) for 3 years = z + interest (on y) for 4 years

\begin{aligned}
\left( x + \frac{x*5*2}{100} \right) = \left( y + \frac{y*5*3}{100} \right) = \left( z + \frac{z*5*4}{100} \right)\\
\left( x + \frac{x}{10} \right) = \left( y + \frac{3y}{20} \right) = \left( z + \frac{z}{5} \right) \\
=> \frac{11x}{10} = \frac{23y}{20} = \frac{6z}{5} \\

\text{lets assume k = }\frac{11x}{10} = \frac{23y}{20} = \frac{6z}{5} \\
\text{then }x = \frac{10k}{11} \\
y = \frac{20k}{23}\\
z = \frac{5k}{6}\\
\text{we know x+y+z = 2379}\\
=> \frac{10k}{11} + \frac{20k}{23} + \frac{5k}{6} = 2379\\
\text{10k*23*6+20k*11*6+5k*11*23=2379*11*23*6}\\
\text{1380k+1320k+1265k=2379*11*23*6}\\
\text{3965k=2379*11*23*6}\\
k = \frac{2379*11*23*6}{3965}\\
\text{by putting value of k we can get x} \\
x = \frac{10k}{11} \\
=>x = \frac{10}{11}*\frac{2379*11*23*6}{3965}\\
=>x = \frac{10*2379*23*6}{3965}\\
= \frac{2*2379*23*6}{793}\\
= 2 * 3 * 23 * 6 = 828
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

SI for 3 year = 2600-2240 = 360
SI for 2 year 360/3 * 2 = 240
principal = 2240 - 240 = 2000
