Question:

Sahil borrowed Rs. 7200 from bank for some project at simple interest. After a period of 3 years, the amount will be Rs. 9576. What was the double of the rate of interest?

Options:

10%

11%

22%

20%

Correct Answer:

22%

Explanation:

A = 9576,  P 7200                                

SI for 3 years = 9576 - 7200 = 2376               

SI for 1 year = 792                                

Rate = \(\frac{792}{7200}\) × 100% = 11%

double of rate = 22%
