Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 1

Goods were bought for Rs 600 and sold the same for Rs 688.50 at a credit of 9 months and thus gaining 2%. The rate of interest per annum is:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 1

S.P. = 102% of Rs 600 = Rs 612
Now, P.W. = Rs 612 and sum = Rs 688.50
∴ T.D. = Rs (688.50 – 612) = Rs 76.50
Thus, S.I. on Rs 612 for 9 months is Rs 76.50
∴ Rate = [(100 × 76.50)/ (612 × 3/4)] %

Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 2

The true discount on a bill due 9 months hence at 16% per annum is Rs 189. The amount of the bill is:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 2

Let P.W. be Rs x.
Then, S.I. on Rs x at 16% for 9 months = Rs 189
∴  x × 16 × 9/12×1/100
= 189 or x = 1575
∴ P.W. = Rs 1575
∴ Sum due
= P.W. + T.D. = Rs (1575 + 189)
= Rs 1764

Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 3

A man buys a watch for Rs 1950 in cash and sells it for Rs 2200 at a credit of 1 year. If the rate of interest is 10% per annum, the man:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 3

S.P. = P.W. of Rs 2200 due 1 year hence
= Rs [(2200 × 100)/ 100 + (10 × 1)]
= Rs 2000
∴ Gain = Rs (2000 – 1950) = Rs 50

Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 4

The true discount on Rs 1760 due after a certain time at 12% per annum is Rs 160. The time after which it is due is:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 4

P.W. = Rs (1760 – 160) = Rs 1600
∴ S.I. on Rs 1600 at 12% is Rs 160
∴ Time = (100 × 160)/ (1600 × 12) = 5/6
years = (5/6 × 12 months) = 10 months

Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 5

The present worth of Rs 2310 due 2.5 years hence, the rate of interest being 15% per annum, is:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 5

P.W. = Rs [(100 × 2310)/ (100 + 15 × 5/12)
= Rs 1680

Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 6

Rs 20 is the true discount on Rs 260 due after a certain time. What will be the true discount on the same sum due after half of the former time, the rate of interest being the same?

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 6

S.I. on Rs (260 – 20) for a given time = Rs 20
S.I. on Rs 240 for half the time = Rs 10.
T.D. on Rs 250 = Rs 10.
∴ T.D. on Rs 260 = Rs [(10/250) × 260]
= Rs 10.40

Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 7

The interest on Rs 750 for 2 years is the same as the true discount on Rs 960 due 2 years hence. If the rate of interest is the same in both cases, it is:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 7

S.I. on Rs 750 = T.D. on Rs 960.
This means P.W. of Rs 960 due 2 years
hence is Rs 750.
∴ T.D. = Rs (960 – 750) = Rs 210.
Thus, S.I. on Rs 750 for 2 years is Rs 210.
∴ Rate = [(100 × 210)/ (750 × 2)] %
= 14%

Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 8

The simple interest and the true discount on a certain sum for a given time and at a given rate are Rs 85 and Rs 80 respectively. The sum is:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 8

Sum = (S.I. × T.D.)/ (S.I.) – (T.D.)
= 85 × 80/ (85 – 80) = Rs 1360

Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 9

The present worth of Rs 1404 due in two equal half-yearly instalments at 8% per annum simple interest is:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 9

Required sum = P.W. of Rs 702 due 6 months + P.W. of Rs 702 due 1 year hence
= [(100 × 702)/(100 + 8 × 1/2) 
+ (100 × 702)/(100 + 8 × 1)]
= Rs (675 + 650) = Rs 1325

Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 10

If the true discount on a sum due 2 years hence at 14% per annum be Rs 168, the sum due is:

Detailed Solution for Olympiad Test: Percentage - 2 - Question 10

P.W. = (100 × T.D.)/ R × T
= (100 × 168)/14 × 2 = 600
∴ Sum = (P.W. + T.D.) = Rs (600 + 168)
= Rs 768
