Option 3: Rs. 5000

Option 4: Rs. 4000

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Rs. 5000


Solution : $\text{Total Amount}=\text{Principal}[(1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{\text{Time}}-1]$
$⇒\text{618}=\text{Principal}[(1+\frac{\text{6}}{100})^{\text{2}}-1]$
$⇒\text{618}=\text{Principal}[(\frac{\text{106}}{100})^{\text{2}}-1]$
$⇒\text{618}=\text{Principal}[(\frac{\text{11236}}{10000})-1]$
$⇒\text{618}=\text{Principal}[(\frac{\text{1236}}{10000})]$
$⇒\text{618}\times (\frac{10000}{1236})=\text{Principal}$
$\therefore\text{Principal}=5000$
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 5000.

Question : In an election between two candidates, the total number of votes polled was ' y '. 40 % of votes were invalid. The winning candidate got 60 % of the valid votes, while the other candidate lost by 6000 votes. Find the value of ' y '.

Option 1: 45000

Option 2: 50000

Option 3: 40000

Option 4: 30000

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 50000


Solution : Total number of votes polled = $y$
Number of invalid votes = 40% of $y$ = $\frac{40y}{100}$ = $\frac{2y}{5}$
Number of valid votes = $1-\frac{2y}{5} = \frac{3y}{5}$
Votes of the winning candidate = 60% of $\frac{3y}{5} = \frac{60×3y}{100×5} = \frac{9y}{25}$
Votes of the lost candidate
