      Question

      The simple interest received on a certain sum is Rs. 450

      less than the sum invested. If the sum was invested at 10% p.a. for 5 years, then find the simple interest received.
      A Rs. 450 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 550 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 750 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the sum invested be Rs. x Therefore, simple interest received = Rs. (x – 450) According to the question, {(x Γ— 10 Γ— 5)/100} = x – 450 => 0.5x = x – 450 => 0.5x = 450 => x = 450/0.5 = 900 Therefore, simple interest received = x – 450 = 900 – 450 = Rs. 450
