A farmer borrowed ₹3600 at 15% per annum at simple interest. At the end of 4 years he cleared his debt by paying ₹4000 per annum and a Cow. The cost of the Cow is: |
₹1000 ₹1200 ₹1550 ₹1760 |
₹1760 |
Principal, P = 3600 Rate, R = 15% per annum Time, T = 4 years Simple Interest = P*R*T/100 = 3600*15*4/100 = 2160 Total Amount paid = 3600+2160 = 5760 Rather he paid 4000+ A cow = 5760 Cost of Cow = 1760 The correct answer is Option (4) → ₹1760 |
