Simple Interest

Question:

The simple interest on a certain sum for two years is 1000 at the rate of 10% per annum. What is the amount after these two years?

Options:

₹6500

₹6000

₹7000

₹5500

Correct Answer:

₹6000

Explanation:

We know ,

Simple Interest = \(\frac{Principal ×Rate × Time }{100}\)

1000 = \(\frac{Principal × 10 × 2 }{100}\)

Principal = Rs. 5000

Amount = Principal + Interest

= 5000 + 1000

= Rs. 6000
