Question:

The difference between CI and SI for two years on sum of Rs.3500 at 20% per annum is:

Options:

120

140

150

125

Correct Answer:

140

Explanation:

20% = \(\frac{1}{5}\)

⇒ \(\frac{Diff.}{Principal}\) = \(\frac{1^2}{5^2}\) = \(\frac{1}{25}\)

⇒ 25R = 3500

⇒ 1R = 140

⇒ Difference = 1R = 1 × 140 = 140
