      Question

      A certain amount doubles in 4 years under simple

      interest at a r% per annum. If Rs.10,000 is invested at (r + 5)% simple interest per annum, then find the interest earned after 2 years.
      A Rs. 6,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 5,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 4,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 7,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Rs. 3,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the principal be Rs. 'P' Then, Simple Interest = 2P - P = Rs. P P = (P Γ— r Γ— 4) / 100 1 = (r Γ— 4) / 100 r = 25 Now, new rate = (r + 5)% = 30% Simple Interest = {(10000 Γ— 30 Γ— 2) / 100} = Rs. 6,000
