Rinku borrows an amount of money at 5% per annum and then lends it at 6% compounded half yearly. In this way he earns Rs 436 in a year. The amount of money borrowed by him is:
Correct
Answer- 2) Rs 40000
Explanation- Let the money borrowed by him be Rs x.
Since the money is lent at 6% compounded half yearly, the effective interest at the end of the year = (3 + 3 + 3 × 3/100) % = (6 + 0.09) % = 6.09%
The money earned by him = (6.09 – 5) % of x = 436
1.09% of x = 436
x = 436/1.09 × 100 = Rs 40000
Incorrect
Answer- 2) Rs 40000
Explanation- Let the money borrowed by him be Rs x.
Since the money is lent at 6% compounded half yearly, the effective interest at the end of the year = (3 + 3 + 3 × 3/100) % = (6 + 0.09) % = 6.09%
The money earned by him = (6.09 – 5) % of x = 436
1.09% of x = 436
x = 436/1.09 × 100 = Rs 40000

Two partners Tom and Harry invest Rs 25000 and Rs 35000 in a business and agree that 40% of the profit will be divided equally and rest of the profit will be divided according to their investments. Find the total profit earned by them if Harry earns Rs 14000 more than Tom.
Correct
Answer- 1) Rs 140000
Explanation- Let the total profit earned by them is 100x
40% of the profit will be divided equally and rest 60% will be divided in the ratio 5:7 (25000:35000).
Total profit earned by Tom = 20x + 5/12 × 60x = 20x + 25x = 45x
Profit earned by Harry = 100x – 45x = 55x
Therefore, the difference between the profit earned by them = 55x – 45x = 10x
We have, 10x = 14000
100x = Rs 140000
Incorrect
Answer- 1) Rs 140000
Explanation- Let the total profit earned by them is 100x
40% of the profit will be divided equally and rest 60% will be divided in the ratio 5:7 (25000:35000).
Total profit earned by Tom = 20x + 5/12 × 60x = 20x + 25x = 45x
Profit earned by Harry = 100x – 45x = 55x
Therefore, the difference between the profit earned by them = 55x – 45x = 10x
We have, 10x = 14000
100x = Rs 140000

If A works for 5 days, remaining work is completed by B in 18 days. If B works for 9 days, remaining work is completed by A in 10 days. Time taken by B to complete the whole work alone is:
Correct
Answer- 4) 27 days
Explanation- Let the work done by A in a day is x and that by B is y.
Then, 5x + 18y = 9y + 10x
5x = 9y
x/y = 9/5
therefore, the work done by A and B is in the ratio 9:5. The number of days taken by them will be in the ratio 5:9 respectively.
If B works for 9 days, remaining work is completed by A in 10 days.
The work done by A in 10 days will be completed by B in = 10/5 × 9 = 18 days.
The time taken by B to complete the whole work alone = 9 + 18 = 27 days.
Incorrect
Answer- 4) 27 days
Explanation- Let the work done by A in a day is x and that by B is y.
Then, 5x + 18y = 9y + 10x
5x = 9y
x/y = 9/5
therefore, the work done by A and B is in the ratio 9:5. The number of days taken by them will be in the ratio 5:9 respectively.
If B works for 9 days, remaining work is completed by A in 10 days.
The work done by A in 10 days will be completed by B in = 10/5 × 9 = 18 days.
The time taken by B to complete the whole work alone = 9 + 18 = 27 days.

A person borrowed Rs 4000 at the rate of 8% per annum compounded annually. He paid Rs 500 at the end of one year and Rs 1000 at the end of second year. How much should he pay at the end 3rd year to finish his deal with the lender?
Correct
Answer- 2) Rs 3375.648
Explanation- Amount due after one year = 108% of 4000 – 500 = Rs 3820
Amount due after two years = 108% of 3820 – 1000 = Rs 3125.6
Amount due after three years = 108% of 3125.6 = Rs 3375.648
Incorrect
Answer- 2) Rs 3375.648
Explanation- Amount due after one year = 108% of 4000 – 500 = Rs 3820
Amount due after two years = 108% of 3820 – 1000 = Rs 3125.6
Amount due after three years = 108% of 3125.6 = Rs 3375.648

What is the perimeter of a circle whose area is equal to the area of a rectangle of length 84cm and breadth 66cm?
Correct
Answer- 1) 264cm Explanation- Let the radius of the circle is r. Then,
∏r2 = 84 × 66 (area of the rectangle = length × breadth)
r2 = 84 × 66 × 7/22
Therefore, r = 42cm
Perimeter of the circle = 2∏r = 2 × 22/7 × 42 = 264cm
Incorrect
Answer- 1) 264cm Explanation- Let the radius of the circle is r. Then,
∏r2 = 84 × 66 (area of the rectangle = length × breadth)
r2 = 84 × 66 × 7/22
Therefore, r = 42cm
Perimeter of the circle = 2∏r = 2 × 22/7 × 42 = 264cm
