Question : A sum becomes INR 12960 in 2 years at the rate of 4% per annum on simple interest. What is the sum?

Option 1: INR 10000

Option 2: INR 12200

Option 3: INR 12000

Option 4: INR 11600

Team Careers360 12th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: INR 12000


Solution : Amount = INR 12960
Term, $n$ = 2 years
Rate, $R$ = 4%
Let $P$ be the principal sum.
Simple interest = $12960 - P$
We know, Simple interest = $\frac{\text{Principal × Time × Rate}}{100}$
$⇒12960-P = \frac{P×2×4}{100}$
$⇒12960 = P + \frac{8P}{100}$

⇒ $13.2 = 2\pi r$
⇒ $13.2=2× \frac{22}{7}×r$
⇒ $r = \frac{13.2\times 7}{2\times 22}$
⇒ $r = 2.1$ cm
