Question:

In how many years, ₹150 will produce the same interest @ 8% as ₹800 produce in 3 years at the rate of 4.5%?

Options:

7

9

11

13

Correct Answer:

9

Explanation:

Interest ₹800 produce in 3 years at the rate of 4.5% = (800 × 3 × 4.5) /100 = 108

So, 108 = Interest produced by 150 at 8% for n no. of years.

108 = (150 × n × 8) /100

n = 9 years
