    • B. Rs. 380
    • C. Rs. 400 (Correct)
    • D. Rs. 420

    Explanation: SI = PRT/100.

  2. Amount

    2. If SI on Rs. 1500 for 2 years is Rs. 300, amount is:

    • A. Rs. 1700
    • B. Rs. 1750
    • C. Rs. 1800 (Correct)
    • D. Rs. 1850

    Explanation: Amount = principal + interest.

  3. Rate

    3. At what rate will Rs. 1200 earn Rs. 240 SI in 4 years?

    • A. 4%
    • B. 5% (Correct)
    • C. 6%
    • D. 7%

    Explanation: R = SI x 100 / PT.

  4. Time

    4. In how many years will Rs. 1000 amount to Rs. 1200 at 10% SI?

    • A. 1
    • B. 2 (Correct)
    • C. 3
    • D. 4

    Explanation: Interest = Rs. 200, so t = 200 x 100 / (1000 x 10).

  5. Compound Interest

    5. CI on Rs. 2000 at 10% for 2 years is:

    • A. Rs. 380
    • B. Rs. 400
    • C. Rs. 420 (Correct)
    • D. Rs. 440

    Explanation: Amount = 2420, so CI = 420.

  6. Difference SI and CI

    6. Difference between CI and SI on Rs. 3000 for 2 years at 10% is:

    • A. Rs. 20
    • B. Rs. 25
    • C. Rs. 30 (Correct)
    • D. Rs. 35

    Explanation: Difference for 2 years = P x r^2 / 10000.

  7. Principal

    7. If SI is Rs. 360 at 6% for 3 years, principal is:

    • A. Rs. 1800
    • B. Rs. 1900
    • C. Rs. 2000 (Correct)
    • D. Rs. 2100

    Explanation: P = SI x 100 / RT.

  8. Annual Increase

    8. A sum becomes Rs. 4840 in 2 years at 10% CI. Principal is:

    • A. Rs. 3800
    • B. Rs. 3900
    • C. Rs. 4000 (Correct)
    • D. Rs. 4100

    Explanation: Principal = 4840 / 1.21.

    9. SI on Rs. 6000 at 5% for 1 year is:

    • A. Rs. 250
    • B. Rs. 280
    • C. Rs. 300 (Correct)
    • D. Rs. 320

    Explanation: SI = 6000 x 5 / 100.

  10. Half-Yearly CI

    10. At 14% compounded half-yearly, the rate per half-year is:

    • A. 5%
    • B. 6%
    • C. 7% (Correct)
