Interest Q.3

0. A certain sum of money amounts to Rs 1008 in 2 years and to Rs 1164 in 3 1/2 years. Find the sum and the rate of interest.

  • Option : B
  • Explanation : INTEREST
    Therefore, principal = Rs (1008 – 208) = Rs 800.
    Now, P = 800, T= 2 and S.I. = 208.
    Therefore, rate = (100 × S.I.)/(P × T) = [(100 × 208)/(800 × 2)]% = 13%
