  • A. 8
  • B. 10
  • C. 12
  • D. Cannot be determined

Explanation: For 2 years, the difference is P(r/100)^2. Thus Rs.96 = Rs.15,000 x (r/100)^2, so (r/100)^2 = 0.0064 and r = 8% per annum.

Correct answer: 8
  • A. Rs. 1620
  • B. Rs. 1640
  • C. Rs. 1680
  • D. Rs. 1700

Correct answer: Rs. 1640
  • A. 3
  • B. 4
  • C. 5
  • D. 6Education

Explanation: At 20% compound interest, after 3 years the growth factor is (1.20)^3 = 1.728, which is less than 2.

Correct answer: 4
  • A. 7 years

  • A. 2 1/2 %
  • B. 4%
  • C. 5%
  • D. 6 2/3 %

Explanation: From the third to the fourth year, the amount rises from Rs.800 to Rs.840, so one year's interest is Rs.840 - Rs.800 = Rs.40.

Correct answer: 5%
  • A. 10%
  • B. 10.5%
  • C. 12%
  • D. None of these

Explanation: The difference is Rs.696.30 - Rs.660 = Rs.36. For 2 years, the difference divided by the simple interest equals r/2, so r = 2 x Rs.36 ÷…

Correct answer: None of these
  • A. 625
  • B. 630
  • C. 640
  • D. 650

Explanation: For 2 years at 4% per annum, the difference is P x (4/100)^2 = P x 0.0016.

Correct answer: 625
  • A. Rs. 2160
  • B. Rs. 3120
  • C. Rs. 3972
  • D. Rs. 6240

Explanation: A 60% simple-interest increase in 6 years means the annual rate is 60% ÷ 6 = 10% per annum.

Correct answer: Rs. 3972
  • A. 1350
  • B. 1450
  • C. 1550
  • D. 1421

Explanation: Since 3√196 = 3 x 14 = 42, the equation becomes (50 - ?/29)% of 4200 = 42.

Correct answer: 1421
  • A. 1500
  • B. 1750
  • C. 9000
  • D. 7500

Explanation: The increase from 9000 to 10500 is 1500. Since 16 2/3% equals 1/6, the required number satisfies ?/6 = 1500, so ? = 1500 x 6 = 9000.

Correct answer: 9000
  • A. 2500
  • B. 3500
  • C. 3600
  • D. 4500

Explanation: Find each percentage: 26.98% of 6002 = 0.2698 x 6002 = 1619.34, and 45.01% of 4199 = 0.4501 x 4199 = 1889.97.

Correct answer: 3500
  • A. 167
  • B. 154
  • C. 162
  • D. 181

Explanation: Convert 332% to 3.32: 3.32 x 2113 = 7015.16. Dividing by 42 gives 7015.16 / 42 = 167.03, approximately 167, option a.

Correct answer: 167
  • A. 140
  • B. 120
  • C. 160
  • D. 180

Explanation: Twenty percent of 40 is (20/100) x 40 = 8, leaving 120 - 8 = 112 for the second term.

Correct answer: 140
  • A. 20
  • B. 40
  • C. 60
  • D. 80

Explanation: Calculate 32% of 425: 0.32 × 425 = 136. Hence 136 - (x/100 × 250) = 36, so x/100 × 250 = 100 and x = 40%.

Correct answer: 40
  • A. 312.73
  • B. 373.12
  • C. 337.12
  • D. 339.12

  • A. 25
  • B. 125
  • C. 241/5
  • D. 253/5

Explanation: Inside the percentage term, 26/13 + 24/12 + 21 = 2 + 2 + 21 = 25, and 60% of 25 = 15.

Correct answer: 25
  • A. 90
  • B. 270
  • C. 810
  • D. 240

Explanation: The intended values are 16.66% = 1/6, 33.33% = 1/3, and 66.66% = 2/3. Their product is 1/6 x 1/3 x 2/3 = 1/27, so ? ÷ 27 = 30 and ?
