Question

On what date will ₹ 1950 lent on 5th January 2011 amount to ₹ 2125.50 at 5 percent per annum simple interest?

Sum

Solution

P = Rs.1950

A = Rs.2125.50

R = 5% P.a.

I = A − P

= Rs.2125.50 − Rs,1950

= Rs.175.50

T =`(100xx"I")/("P"xx"R")`

`=(100xx175.50)/(1950xx5)`

`=17550/9750=1755/975=117/65`

`=9/5` years =`1 4/5` years

= 1 years 292 days

∵ `4/5` years

`=4/5xx365` days = 292 days

Jan. + Feb. + March + April + May + June + July +Aug. + Sept. + Oct.

(31 − 5) + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 31 + 30 + 23

= 292 days

∴ Required date = 23rd October 2012
