      Question

      A sum of money becomes three times itself in 12 years at

      simple interest. What is the rate of interest?
      A 16(2/3)% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 15% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 18(1/3)% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 20% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the principal amount = Rs. P And rate of simple interest = R% p.a. After 12 years, it becomes Rs. β€˜3P’ So, simple interest earned = 3P – P = Rs. 2P So, R = (100 Γ— 2P)/(P Γ— 12) = 200/12 = 16(2/3)%
