If a sum of $Rs. 3000$ is lent out at $3%$ per annum for $20$ years under simple interest, then the amount at the end of $20^{th}$ year is:
- A
$Rs. 1800$
- B
$Rs. 1080$
- C
$Rs. 3600$
- ✓
$Rs. 4800$
AnswerCorrect option: D. $Rs. 4800$

Sum $(P) = Rs. 3000$
Rate $(R) = 3%$
Time $(T) = 20$ years
$\text{I}=\frac{\text{P}\ \times\ \text{R}\ \times\ \text{T}}{100}$
$=\frac{3000\ \times\ 3\ \times\ 20}{100}$
$=\text{Rs. }1800$
Amount $= I + P = Rs. 1800 + Rs. 3000 = Rs. 4800$

- A
$8\%$
- ✓
$10\%$
- C
$12\%$
- D
$12\frac{1}{2}\%$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $10\%$
Amount $= 2$ times the sum $= 2P$
Simple interest $(I) =$ Amount - Sum $= 2P - P = P$
Let the sum $(P)$ be $x.$
Then, simple interest $(I) = x$
Rate $(R) = R\%$
Time $(T) = 10$ years
$\text{I}=\frac{\text{P}\ \times\ \text{R}\ \times\ \text{T}}{100}$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}=\frac{100\ \times\ \text{I}}{\text{P }\times\text{ T}}$
$=\frac{100\ \times\text{ x}}{\text{x } \times\ 10}$
$=10\%$
Hence, the correct option is $(b).$

- A
$25\%$
- B
$80\%$
- ✓
$20\%$
- D

AnswerCorrect option: C. $20\%$
Let the Raman’s income be x. it is given that Mohan’s income is $25\%$ more than Raman’s income.
The, Mohan's income $=\text{x}+20\%\text{ of } \text{x}+\frac{25}{100}\text{x}=\text{x}\Big(1+\frac{25}{100}\Big)$
$=\text{x}\Big(\frac{100+25}{100}\Big)=\frac{125}{100}\text{x}$
$\therefore$ Raman's income as compared to Mohan's income.
$=\frac{\text{Mohan's income - Raman's income}}{\text{Mohan's income}}\times100\%$
$\frac{\frac{125}{100}\text{x-x}}{\frac{125}{100}\text{x}}\times100\%=\frac{\frac{125\text{x}-100\text{x}}{100}}{\frac{125}{100}\text{x}}\times100\%$

- ✓
$\frac{35}2$
- D
$24$
AnswerCorrect option: C. $\frac{35}2$
As, $8 : x :: 16 : 35$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{8}}{\text{x}}=\frac{16}{35}$
$\Rightarrow\text{16x}=8\times35$ (By cross multiplication)
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{8\times35}{16}$ (Transposing $16$ to $R.H.S.)$
$\therefore\text{x}=\frac{35}{2}$

At simple interest a sum becomes $\frac65$ of itself in $2\frac12$ years. The rate of interest per annum is:
- A
$6\%$
- B
$7\frac12\%$
- ✓
$8\%$
- D
$9\%$
AnswerLet the sum be Rs. $x$
Rate of interest $= r\%$
Time $=2\frac12$ years $=\frac52$ years
Amount $=\frac65\times\text{Sum}$
Rate $= ?$
Amount $=\frac65\times\text{Sum}$
Principal $+ S.I. = $Amount
$\text{Principal}+\frac{\text{Principal}\times\text{Rate}\times\text{Time}}{100}=\frac65\times\text{Principal}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}+\frac{\text{x}\times\text{r}\times5}{100\times2}=\frac65\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\Big(1+\frac{5\text{r}}{100\times2}\Big)=\frac65\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow1+\frac{\text{r}}{40}=\frac65$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=40\times\frac15$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=8$
So, the rate of interest is $8\%$

- A
$Rs. 567$
- B
$Rs. 693$
- ✓
$Rs. 700$
- D

AnswerCorrect option: C. $Rs. 700$
Let the $CP$ be $x.$
$SP = Rs. 630$
Loss $= 10\%$
Therfore, $CP$ is more than $SP.$
Now,
Loss $= 10\%$ of $CP$ and $SP = CP $- loss
So, $SP = CP - 10\%$ of $CP$
$\Rightarrow630=\text{x}-\frac{10}{100}\times\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow630=\Big(1-\frac{1}{10}\Big)\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow630=\Big(\frac{9}{10}\Big)\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{6300}{9}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=700 $
Thus, $CP = Rs. 700$

A sum amounts to $Rs. 3626$ in $219$ days at $6\%$ per annum simple interest. The sum is:
- A
$Rs. 3000$
- B
$Rs. 3200$
- ✓
$Rs. 3500$
- D
$Rs. 3600$
AnswerCorrect option: C. $Rs. 3500$
$A = Rs. 3626$
$R = 6\%$
$T = 219$ days $=\frac{219}{365}\text{ years}$
Let the required sum be Rs. $x$
$\text{S.I.}=\frac{\text{P}\times\text{R}\times\text{T}}{100}$
$=\frac{\text{x}\times6\times219}{100\times365}$
$=\frac{1314\text{x}}{36500}$
$\text{A}=\text{P}+\text{S.I.}$
$=\text{x}+\frac{1314\text{x}}{36500}$
$=\frac{36500\text{x}+1314\text{x}}{36500}$
$=\frac{1314\text{x}}{36500}$
But the amount is Rs. 3626
$\therefore\frac{37814\text{x}}{36500}=3626$
$\text{x}=\frac{3626\times36500}{37814}=3500$
The required sum is $Rs. 3500$

If $\frac{4}{5}$ of a cistern is filled in $1$ minute, how much more time will be required to fill the rest of it?
- A
$20$ seconds
- ✓
$15$ seconds
- C
$12$ seconds
- D
$10$ seconds
AnswerCorrect option: B. $15$ seconds
Total cistern $= 1$
Filled in $1$ minute $=\frac{4}{5}$
Unfilled $=1-\frac{4}{5}=\frac{1}{5}$
$\frac{4}{5}$ cistern is filled in $= 1$ minutes $= 60$ seconds
$1$ full cistern can be filled in $=\frac{60\times5}{4}=75$ seconds
More time $= 75 - 60 = 15$ seconds

A ratio equivalent to $2 : 5$ is:
- ✓
$6 : 15$
- B
$4 : 5$
- C
$5 : 2$
- D
$5 : 4$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $6 : 15$
Since, $2:5=\frac25=\frac{2\times3}{5\times3}=\frac{6}{15}=6:15$
So, the ratio equivalent to $2 : 5$ is $6 : 15.$
Hence, the correct alternative is option $(a).$

If interest on $Rs. x$ for $2$ years at $R %$ per annum is $Rs. 80,$ the interest on $Rs. 2x$ for one year at $R\%$ per annum is:
- A
$Rs. 160$
- B
$Rs. 40$
- ✓
$Rs. 80$
- D
$Rs. 120$
AnswerCorrect option: C. $Rs. 80$
It is given that,
Sum $(P_1) = Rs. x$
Rate $(R_1) = R%$
Time $(T_1) = 2 years$
Interest $(I_1) = Rs. 80$
$\text{I}_1=\frac{\text{P}_1\ \times\ \text{R}_1\ \times\ \text{T}_1}{100}$
$\Rightarrow80=\frac{\text{x}\ \times\ \text{R}\ \times\ 2}{100}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{2\text{R}\text{x}}{100}=80\ ...(\text{i})$
Now,
Sum $(P_2) = Rs. 2x$
Rate $(R_2) = R%$
Time $(T_2) = 1 year$
$\text{I}_2=\frac{\text{P}_2\ \times\ \text{R}_2\ \times\ \text{T}_2}{100}$
$=\frac{2\text{x}\ \times\ \text{R}\ \times\ 1}{100}$
$=\frac{2\text{R}\text{x}}{100}$
$=80$ [From (i)]
Therefore, $I_2 = Rs. 80$
Hence, the correct option is $(c).$

Mark against the correct answer in the following:
The ages of $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio $5 : 2.$ After $5$ years, their ages will be in the ratio $15: 7$. The present age of $A$ is:
- A
$48$ years
- B
$36$ years
- ✓
$40$ years
- D
$35$ years
AnswerCorrect option: C. $40$ years
Suppose that the present ages of $A$ and $B$ are $5x$ yrs and $2x$ yrs, respectively.
After 5 years, the ages of $A$ and $B$ will be $(5x + 5)$ yrs and $(2x + 5)$ yrs, respectively
Then, $(5x+ 5) : (2x + 5) = 15 : 7$
$\Rightarrow\frac{5\text{x}+5}{2\text{x}+5}=\frac{15}{7}$
Cross multiplying; we get:
$\Rightarrow 35x + 35 = 30x + 75$
$\Rightarrow 5x = 40$
$\Rightarrow x = 8$
Then, the present age of $A$ is $5 \times 8 = 40$ years.
