Question
An amount becomes Rs. 11,520 after 3 years at a simple
interest rate of r% p.a. If the rate had been increased to (r + 5)% per annum, the same sum would become Rs. 12,570 in 3 years. Calculate the original sum invested.Solution
ATQ,
Let the sum invested be Rs. βPβ.
Simple interest at r% = 11520 β P
So, 11520 β P = P Γ 3 Γ r Γ· 100
Or, 100 Γ (11520 β P) = 3Pr β¦β¦β¦. (I)
Simple interest at (r + 5)% = 12570 β P
So, 12570 β P = P Γ (r + 5) Γ 3 Γ· 100
Or, 100 Γ (12570 β P) = 3Pr + 15P β¦β¦β¦. (II)
From (I) and (II),
1257000 β 100P = 1152000 β 85P
Or, 105000 = 15P
P = 7000
Therefore, sum = Rs. 7,000
