Question:

Mr. X takes a loan of ₹2,00,000 with 10% annual interest rate for n years with  EMI ₹5,000 at flat rate. Value of 'n' is :

Options:

5 years

6 years

4 years

3 years

Correct Answer:

5 years

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → 5 years

Let the loan tenure be $n$ years.

$EMI=\frac{\text{Total amount to be paid}}{Total months}$

$⇒\frac{2,00,000+20,000n}{12×n}=5,000$

$⇒n=\frac{2,00,000}{40,000}=5$ years
