Question
A man invested Rs. 10,000 at simple interest of 'x%'
p.a. and received Rs. 20,000 after 2 years. If he had invested Rs. 25,000 at simple interest of 'x%' p.a. for 3 years, then find the interest earned by him from this investmentSolution
Total interest earned in 2 years = 20000 - 10000 = Rs. 10,000 ATQ; 10000 = (10000 × x × 2) ÷ 100 Or, x = 50 So, required interest earned = (25,000 × 50 × 3) ÷ 100 = Rs. 37500
