Question : If $B:A = 2:3$ and $A:C = 5:7$, then what is $(A + B):(B + C)$?

Option 1: $25:26$

Option 2: $25:36$

Option 4: $27:43$

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $25:31$


Solution : $B:A = 2:3$ -----------(1)
$A:C = 5:7$ -----------(2)
Multiply equation (1) by 5 and equation (2) by 3, we have:
$B:A = 10:15$
$A:C = 15:21$
⇒ $B:A: C = 10:15:21$
Let $B=10k,A=15k,$ and $C=21k$

Question : What is the compound interest on Rs. 8400 for 2 years at 10% per annum compounded annually?

Option 1: Rs. 10164

Option 2: Rs. 840

Option 3: Rs. 5064

Option 4: Rs. 1764

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Rs. 1764


Solution : We have,
Principal = Rs. 8400 
Rate = 10% per annum
Time = 2 years
$\text{Compound Interest}=\text{Principal}×(1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{\text{Time}}-\text{Principal}$
$⇒\text{Compound Interest}=8400×(1+\frac{\text{10}}{100})^{\text{2}}-\text{8400}$
$⇒\text{Compound Interest}=8400×(\frac{\text{11}}{10})^{\text{2}}-\text{8400}$
$⇒\text{Compound Interest}=8400×(\frac{\text{121}}{100})-\text{8400}$
$⇒\text{Compound Interest}=84×121-\text{8400}$
$\therefore\text{Compound Interest}=10164-\text{8400}=1764$
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 1764.
