Option 1: $31 \frac{9}{11}$%

Option 2: $33 \frac{2}{11}$%

Option 3: $30\frac{7}{11}$%

Option 4: $31\frac{7}{11}$%

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $31 \frac{9}{11}$%


Solution : Let the marked price be $100x$.
Discount = 45%
Selling price $= 100x - \frac{45}{100} \times 100x = 55x$
Profit percentage = 45%
Cost price $= \text{Selling price} \times \frac{100}{100 + \text{Profit}\%}$
⇒ Cost price $= 55x \times \frac{100}{100 + 45}$

Question : What is the Compound interest on INR 25,000 for 3 years at 10% per annum compounded yearly?

Option 1: INR 8,125

Option 2: INR 8,000

Option 3: INR 8,200

Option 4: INR 8,275

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: INR 8,275


Solution : We know, $\text{Total amount}=\text{Principal}×(1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{\text{Time}}$
$⇒\text{Total amount}= 25000(1+\frac{10}{100})^{3}$
$⇒\text{Total amount}= 25000×\frac{11}{10}×\frac{11}{10}×\frac{11}{10}= 33275$
$\therefore$ Compound Interest = Total amount – Principal = 33275 – 25000 = INR 8,275
Hence, the correct answer is INR 8,275.
