Question
A borrows Rs.800 at the rate of 12 % per annum. Simple interest and B borrows Rs.910 at the rate of 10 % per annum simple interest. In how many years will their amounts at debts be equal?
Options:
A .  18 years
B .  20years
C .  22 years
D .  24 years
Answer: Option C


Let the required time be x years. 
Then
800 + 800 x 12/100 × x = 910 + 910 x 10/100 × x 
=> (96x -91 x) = 110 
=> 5x =110 
=> x =22
