Solve the following :
A cargo of grain is insured at `(3/4)`% to cover 70% of its value. ₹1,008 is the amount of premium paid. If the grain is worth ₹12 per kg, how many kg of the grain did the cargo contain?
उत्तर
Let the property value of cargo be ₹ x.
Since, cargo is insured to 70% of its value,
∴ Policy value = 70% of property value
= `(70)/(100) xx x`
= `₹ (7x)/(10)`
Rate of perimum = `(3)/(4)`%
Amount of perimum = ₹1.008.
∴ Amount od premium = `(3)/(4)`% of policy value
∴ 1,008 = `(3)/(4) xx (1)/(100) xx (7x)/(10)`
∴ x = `(1008 xx 4 xx 100 x 10)/(3 xx 7)`
∴ x = ₹1,,92,000
∴ Property value of cargo is ₹,92,000,
i.e., cargo contains grain of ₹1,92,000.
Price of grain is ₹12 per kg.
∴ Capacity of cargo = `"Value of cargo"/"Price of 1kg grain"`
= `(192,000)/(12)`
= 16,000 kgs
∴ Cargo contains 16,000 kgs of grains.

A property valued at ₹7,00,000 is insured to the extent of ₹5,60,000 at `(5/8)^"th"` % less 20%. . Calculate the saving made in the premium.Find the amount of loss that the owner must bear, including premium, if the property is damaged to the extent of 40 % of its value.
Property value = ₹ 12,50,000
Rate of premium, r = ₹ 3%
If property is fully insured, the policy value is same as property value therefore policy value = `square`
Premium = `"r"/100 xx "policy value"`
= `square/100 xx 12,50,000`
= `square`
Property value = ₹ 12,50,000
Rate of premium, r = ₹ 3%
If property is 80% insured
Policy value = 80% of its property value
= `square/100 xx 12,50,000`
= ₹ 10,00,000
Premium = `square/100 xx 10,00,000`
= ₹ `square`
