Question

The compound interest on a certain sum for 2 years at 10% per annum is Rs. 525. The simple interest on the same sum for double the time at half the rate percent per annum is:

Options:
A .  Rs. 400
B .  Rs. 500
C .  Rs. 600
D .  Rs. 800
Answer: Option B

Let the sum be Rs. P.


Then , \(\left[P\left(1+\frac{10}{100}\right)^{2}-P\right] = 525\)


\(\left[\left(\frac{11}{10}\right)^{2}-1\right] = 525\)


P =  \(\left(\frac{525\times100}{21}\right) = 2500\)


So , Sum =  Rs. 2500.


So, S.I. = Rs. \(\left(\frac{2500\times5\times4}{100}\right) = 500.\)
