      Question

      What is the difference between the simple interest

      earned on an investment of Rs. 16,200 for 5.5 years at an annual interest rate of 8%, and the total amount obtained from an investment of Rs. 4,260 at 15% simple interest per annum for 4 years?
      A Rs. 312 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 328 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 344 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 296 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Simple received on Rs. 16,200 = 16200 X (5.5 X 8 ÷ 100) = Rs. 7,128

      Total amount received on investing Rs. 4260 = 4260 + (4260 X 15 X 4 ÷ 100)

      = 4260 + 2556 = Rs. 6,816

      So, required difference = 7128 - 6816 = Rs. 312
