Interest (Simple and Compound) Exercise 9(A) Solution : 

Question no – (1) 

Solution : 

(i) As per the question,

Principal = 750;

Time = 3 4/12

= 3 1/3

= 10/3 years

Rate = 10%

Simple Interest = PRT/100

= 750 × 10 × 10/3 × 100

= 250

Now, the Amount,

= (750 + 250)

= 1000 Rs

Therefore, Interest is Rs 250 and amount will be 1000 Rs.

(ii) Given, Principal = 5000 Rs

And, Rate = 8%

From 23rd December to 29th July,

= (8 + 31 + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 29)

= 219 days

= Times = 219/365 years

Interest,

= 5000 × 8 × 219/100 × 365

= 240 Rs

Amount,

= (5000 + 240)

= 5240 Rs

Therefore, the interest is 240 and amount will be 5240 Rs.

(iii) Given, Principal = 2600 Rs

Time = 2 years 3 m = (2 × 12) + 3 = 27 months

Rate = 1%

Interest,

= 2600 × 27 × 1/100

= 702 Rs

Amount,

= (2600 + 702)

= 3302 Rs

Thus, the interest is 702 and the amount is 3302 Rs.

(iv) From the question we get,

Principal = 4000 Rs

Time = 1 1/3 = 4/3 = 4/3× 12 = 16 month

Rate = 2%

Interest,

= 4000 × 2 × 16/100

= 1280 Rs

Amount,

= (4000 + 12800)

= 5280 Rs

Therefore, the interest will be 1280 and the amount will be 5280 Rs.

Question no – (2) 

Solution : 

Simple Interest,

= 24000 × 4 × 7.5/100

= 7200 Rs

Amount to be clear at the end of 4th years,

= (24000 + 7200)

= 31,200 Rs

Therefore, he will pay 31,200 at the end of 4 years to clear his debt.

Question no – (3) 

Solution : 

Let, principal = x

Time = 2 year

Rate = 10%

Interest,

= x × 10 × 2/100 = x/5

= x = (5 × 1480)

= 7400 Rs

Therefore, the sum of money will be 7400 Rs.

Question no – (4) 

Solution : 

Let, principal ‘P’

Time = 6 years 3 m

= (6 + 3/12) year

= 75/12

= 25/4 year.

Rate = 5%

Simple Interest = 7008 Rs

Simple Interest = P × 25/4 × 5/100

= 7008 = R × 25/4 × 5/100

P = 7008 × 100 × 4/25 × 5

= 112128/5

= 22425.60 Rs.

Therefore, the required principal will be 22425.60 Rs.

Question no – (5) 

Solution : 

Let, Principal = p;

Time = 4 years

Rate = 6 1/4

= 25/4%

S.I = P × 25/4 × 4/100

= P/4

Amount = (p + p/4)

= 5p/4

5p/4 = 4000

= P = 4 × 4000/5

= 3200 Rs

Therefore, the principal will be 3200 Rs.

Question no – (6) 

Solution : 

(i) Given, Principal = 630 Rs

Interest = 126 Rs

Time = 4 years

∴ Rate = 100 × 126/630 × 4

= 5%

Hence, the rate percent will be 5%.

(ii) Let, Principal = 100 Rs

Amount = (2 × 100)

= 200 Rs

Interest,

= (200 – 100)

= 100 Rs

Time = 6 1/4 years

= 25/4 years

Rate = 100 × 100/100 × 25/4

= 100 × 100 × 4/100

= 16%

Therefore, the Rate of Interest will be 16%

Question no – (7)

Solution : 

(i) Given in the question,

Principal = 950 Rs

Simple Interest = 399 Rs

Time,

= 100 × 399/950 × 7

= 6 years.

Therefore, the required time will be 6 years.

(ii) Given, Amount = 1536 Rs

And, Principal = 1200 Rs

Interest = (1536 – 1200)

= 336 Rs

We know that,

Time = 100 × 336/1200 × 3.5

= 8 years

Hence, the required time will be 8 years.

Question no – (8) 

Solution : 

Let, principal = 8 Rs

Simple Interest = (3/8 × 8)

= 3 Rs

Time = 6 1/4

= 25/4 years

Rate = 100 × 3/8 × 25/4

= 100 × 3 × 4/8 × 25

= 6%

Therefore, the rate percent will be 6%.

Question no – (10) 

Solution : 

Let, p = 8 Rs

Interest = (8 × 5/8)

= 5 Rs

Time = 100 × 5/8 × 6

= 125/12 years

= 10 5/12

= 10 years 5 months.

Therefore, the required time will be 10 years 5 months.

Question no – (11) 

Solution : 

At 1st, S.I. = 7000 × 6 × 3/100

= 1260

2nd, S.I. = PRT/100

= 9500 × 5 × 3/100

= 1424 Rs.

Total income,

= (1260 + 1425)

= 2685

Therefore, Ashok total income from the interest in 3 years will be 2685 Rs.

Question no – (12) 

Solution : 

1st, S.I. = 4500 × 5 × 4/100

= 900 Rs

2nd, P = (8000 – 4500)

= 3500 Rs

Given Rate = 6%

S.I. = 3500 × 6 × 4/100

= 840 Rs

Total interest paid,

= (900 + 8400

= 1740 Rs

Therefore, the total interest will be 14740 Rs.

Question no – (13) 

Solution : 

At first case,

Let, Rate = x%

Time = 4 1/2 years

= 9/2

Interest

= 4800 × x × 9/100 × 2

= 216x

2nd case,

Interest = PRT/100

= 2500 × x × 6/100

= 150x

Now, 216x + 150x = 2196

= 366x = 2196

= x = 2196/366

= 6%

Hence, the rate percent per annum will be 6%.

Question no – (14) 

Solution :

Here, Time = 8 months

= 8/12

= 2/3 years

S.I = 2550 × 7.5 × 2/3/100

= 2550 × 7.5 × 2/3 × 100

= 127.50 Rs

Now the Amount,

= (2550 + 127.50)

= 2677.50 Rs

Price of television,

= (2677.50 – 1422.50)

= 1255 Rs

Therefore, the price of the television will be 1255 Rs.

Interest (Simple and Compound) Exercise 9(B) Solution : 

Question no – (1) 

Solution : 

As per the given question,

Let, sum = 100 Rs

Time = 3 years

Rate of interest = r%

Interest = 100 × 3 × r/100

= 3r

= (0.24) × 100 = 3r

= r = 24/3

= 8%

Hence, the rate of interest will be 8%.

Question no – (2) 

Solution : 

Here, p = 3750 Rs

Amount = 4620 Rs

Interest,

= (4620 – 3750)

= 870 Rs

Time = 3 years

Rate = 100 × 870/3750 × 3

= 100 × 290/3750

= 116/15

= 7 11/15%

Now, P = 7500;

Rate = 116/15

= 7 11/15%

Time = 5 1/2 years

= 11/2 years

Interest,

= 7500 × 11 × 116/2 × 15 × 100

= 3190 Rs

Now the Amount,

= (7500 + 3190)

= 10,690 Rs

Therefore, the rate of interest will be 7 11/15% and amount will be 10,690 Rs.

Question no – (4) 

Solution : 

First, Amount = 5000 Rs

Principal = 4000 Rs

Interest = (5000 – 4000) = 1000 Rs

Time = 8 years

Rate = 100 × I/P × R

= 100 × 1000/4000 × 8

= 25/8%

2nd, Amount = 2800

Principal = 2100

Interest = (2800 – 2100)

= 700 Rs

Rate = 25/8%

Time = 100 × 7000 × 8/2100 × 25

= 32/3 years

= 10 2/3 years

= 10 years 8 months.

Hence, the required time will be 10 years 8 months.

Question no – (5) 

Solution : 

1st, Principal = 7500 Rs

Rate = 5%

Time = 6 years

Interest = PRT/100

= 7500 × 5 × 6/100

= 2250 Rs

2nd, case,

Rate = 6.5%;

Time = 4 years

Interest = 2250 Rs

Principal,

= 100 × 2250/6.5 × 4 …[From P = 100×I/R×T]

= 8653.25 Rs

Hence, the required sum of money will be 8653.25 Rs

Question no – (6) 

Solution : 

As per the given question,

In 6 years Amount = 4050

4 years Amount = 3825

Interest of 2 years

= (4050 – 3825)

= 225 Rs

Interest of 4 years

= (225/2 × 4)

= 450 Rs

Principal,

= (3825 – 450)

= 3375 Rs

Now, Rate = 100 × 450/3375 × 4

= 90/3

= 3 1/3%

Therefore, the rate percent will be 3 1/3% and sum will be 3375 Rs.

Question no – (7) 

Solution : 

Here, Rate = 100 × I/P × T

= 100 × 750/3750 × 4

= 5%

Now, Interest of 4 years = 750

Interest of 15 years = (750/4 × 15)

= 2812.50

So, Amount in 15 years will be,

= (3750 + 2812.50)

= 6562.50 Rs

Therefore, the rate will be 5% and amount in 15 years will be 6562.50 Rs.

Question no – (8) 

Solution : 

Interest = (A – P)

= (2125.50 – 1950)

= 175.50 Rs

Time = 100 × I/P× R

= 100 × 175.50/1950 × 5

= 9/5

= 1 4/5

= 1 year 4/5 × 365

= 1 year 292 days

So, Now required date,

= (31 – 5) + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 31 + 30 + 23

= 292 days.

Therefore, the required date will be 23rd October.

Question no – (9) 

Solution : 

At 1st, Let, R = x %

So, I = PRT/100

= 2400 × x × 3/100

= 72 x

2nd, Interest = 2000 × x × 3/100

= 60x

So, 72x = 60x + 60

= 72x – 60x = 60

= 12x = 60

= x = 5% [60/12 = 5]

Therefore, the rate will be 5%.

Question no – (10) 

Solution : 

Let, 1st part, x

2nd part = (15600 – x)

So, x × 5 × 5/100 = (16500 – x) × 9/2 × 6/100

= 25x = 27 × 15600 – 27x

= 25x + 27x = 27 × 15600

= x = 27 × 15600/52

= 8100 Rs

∴ 1st, part = 8100 Rs

∴ 2nd, part = (15600 – 8100)

= 7500 Rs

Interest (Simple and Compound) Exercise 9(C) Solution : 

Question no – (1) 

Solution : 

(i) Interest for the first year,

Interest of 1st year

= 8000 × 10 × 1/100

= 800 Rs

(ii) Principal for the second year,

Amount = (8000 + 800)

= 8800 Rs

Principal of 2nd years = 8800 Rs

(iii) Interest for the second year,

Interest for 2nd year

= 8800 × 10 × 1/100

= 880 Rs

(iv) Final amount at the end of the second year,

Amount at the end of 2nd year,

= (8800 + 880)

= 9680 Rs

(v) Compound interest earned in 2 years,

Compound Interest in 2 years,

= (9680 – 8000)

= 1680 Rs

Question no – (2) 

Solution : 

(i) The interest of the first year.

= 20,000 × 8 × 1/100

= 1600 Rs

(ii) the interest of the second year.

Amount after 1 year,

= (20,000 + 1600)

= 21,600 Rs

Interest of 2nd year,

= 21600 × 8 × 1/100

= 1728 Rs

(iii) the final amount at the end of the second year.

Final amount at the end of the year,

= (21600 + 1728)

= 23,328 Rs

(iv) the compound interest of two years.

Interest of two years,

= (23,328 – 20,000)

= 3,328 Rs

Question no – (3) 

Solution : 

1st year Interest,

= 12000 × 10 × 1/100

= 1200 Rs

1st year Amount,

= (12000 + 1200)

= 13200 Rs

2nd year, Interest

= 13200 × 10 × 1/100

= 1320 Rs

Amount in 2 years,

= (13200 + 1320)

= 14520 Rs

And, C.I of two years,

= (1200 + 1320)

= 2520 Rs

Question no – (4) 

Solution : 

Amount after 3 years,

= 10,000 (1 + 8/100)³

= 10,000 × (108/100)³

= 10,000 × 108 × 108 × 108/100 × 100 × 100

= 12597.12 Rs

Now the Compound Interest,

= (12597.12 – 10,000)

= 2597.12 Rs

Therefore, the amount will be 12597.12 Rs and Compound Interest will be 2597.12 Rs.

Question no – (5) 

Solution : 

Amount in two years,

= 5000 (1 + 10/100) (1 + 12/100)

= 5000 × (100 + 10/100) (100 + 12/100)

= (5000 × 110/100 × 112/100)

= 6160 Rs.

Compound Interest,

= (6160 – 5000)

= 1160 Rs.

Hence, the compound interest will be 1160 Rs.

Question no – (6) 

Solution :  

Amount in 3 years,

= 15000 (1 + 6/100) (1 + 8/100) (1 + 10/100)

= 15000 × 106/100 × 108/100 × 110/100

= 18829.20 Rs

Compound Interest,

= (18829.20 – 15000)

= 3829.2 Rs

Therefore, the amount will be Rs 18829.20 and compound interest will be Rs 3829.2.

Question no – (7) 

Solution : 

Amount paid after 3 years,

= 16000 (1 + 5/100)³

= 16000 (100 + 5/100)³

= 16000 × 105/100 × 105/100 × 105/100

= 18522 Rs

Thus, Mohan have to pay Rs. 18522 at the end of three years.

Question no – (8) 

Solution : 

Amount after 2 years,

= 40,000 (1 + 10/100)²

= 40,000 × (100 + 10/100)²

= 40,000 × (110/100)²

= 40,000 × 110 × 110/100 × 100

= 48,400 Rs

Compound Interest,

= (48400 – 40000)

= 8,400 Rs

Therefore, interest pay by Rekha in the second years will be 8400 Rs.

Question no – (9) 

Solution : 

Amount after 2 years,

= 15000 (1 + 6/100)²

= 15000 (1000 + 6/100)²

= 15000 (106/100 × 106/100)

= 16854 Rs

Compound Interest in two years,

= (16854 – 15000)

= 1854

For 1st year Compound Interest,

= (15000 × 6/100)

= 900 Rs

And 2nd years Compound Interest,

= (15000 + 900) × 6/100

= (15900 × 6/100)

= 954 Rs

Therefore, the compound interest for 2nd years will be Rs. 954

Question no – (10) 

Solution : 

(i) the interest for the first year.

Interest of 1st year,

= (9600 × 10/100)

= 960 Rs

(ii) the amount at the end of the first year.

Amount at the end of 1st year

= (960 + 9600)

= 10560 Rs

(iii) the interest for the second year.

Interest at 2nd year,

= 10560 × 10 × 1/100

= 1056 Rs

Amount after 2nd year,

= (10560 + 1056)

= 11616 Rs

(iv) the interest for the third year.

The interest at third year,

= 11616 × 10 × 1/100

= 1161.00 Rs

Question no – (11) 

Solution :  

Here, P = 5000 Rs

Time = 2 year

Amount at end of 1 year = 5600

Interest,

= (5600 – 5000)

= 600 Rs

(i) Rate of interest per annum,

= 600 × 100/5000 × 1

= 12%

(ii) the amount at the end of the second year.

Principal 2nd year = 5600 Rs

Interest,

= 5600 × 12 × 1/100

= 672 Rs

Amount at the end of 2nd year,

= (5600 + 672)

= 6272 Rs

Question no – (12) 

Solution : 

As per the question we know,

Principal = 7500 Rs

Rate = 8%

Time = 2 year

Simple Interest = 7500 × 8 × 2/100

= 1200 Rs

Interest,

= 7500 × 8 × 1/100

= 600 Rs

Amount = (7500 + 600)

= 8100 Rs

2nd year, principal = 8100

Interest,

= 8100 × 8 × 1/100

= 648 Rs

Total CI for 2 years,

= (600 + 648)

= 1248 Rs

Difference between C.I and S.I for 2 years,

= (1248 – 1200)

= 48 Rs

Therefore, the difference between C.I and S.I will be 48 Rs

Question no – (13) 

Solution : 

Here, principal = 8000 Rs

Rate = 10%

Time = 3 years.

Simple Interest of 3 years,

= 8000 × 10 × 3/100

= 2400 Rs

And, Simple Interest of 1 year = 2400/3

= 800 Rs

Amount of 1st year

= (8000 + 800)

= 8800 Rs

In 2nd year principal = 8800

Interest of 2nd year

= 8800 × 10 × 1/100

= 880 Rs

Amount = (8800 + 880)

= 9680 Rs

3nd year, Interest

= 9680 × 10 × 1/100

= 968 Rs

Compound Interest for 3 years,

= (800 + 880 + 968)

= 264 Rs

Difference between Compound Interest and Simple Interest for 3 years,

= (2648 – 2400)

= 248 Rs

Hence, the difference between S.I and C.I will be Rs. 248

Question no – (14) 

Solution : 

According to the question we know,

Principal = 40,000

Rate = 10%

Time = 2 years

Now the Interest,

= 40,000 × 10 × 1/100

= 4000 Rs

∴ The amount will be,

= (40,000 + 4000)

= 44,000 Rs

2nd years, principal = 44000

Interest = 44000 × 10 × 1/100

= 4400 Rs

C.I of 2 years,

= (4000 + 4400)

= 8400 Rs

Therefore, Both case interest will Same.

Question no – (15) 

Solution : 

Here, Principal = 24000 Rs

Rate = 13%

Time = 2 years

Simple Interest of 2 years,

= 24000 × 13 × 2/100

= 6240 Rs

In 12% Compound Interest,

= 24000 × 12 × 1/100

= 2880 Rs

Amount after 1st year,

= (24000 + 2880)

= 26880 Rs

Interest,

= 26880 × 12 × 1/100

= 3225.60 Rs

Compound Interest of 2 years,

= (2880 + 3225.60)

= 6105.60 Rs

Total interest,

= (6240 + 6105.60)

= 12345.60 Rs

Thus, total interest earned by Mr. Sharma in 2 years will be 12345.60 Rs

Question no – (16) 

Solution : 

Sum borrowed = 12000 Rs

Rate = 10%

Time = 2 years

The Interest will be,

= 12000 × 10 × 1/100

= 12000 Rs

(i) Amount,

= (12000 = 1200)

= 13200 Rs

(ii) Balance amount,

= (13200 – 8000)

= 5200 Rs

(iii) Interest of 2nd years,

= 5200 × 10 × 1/100

= 520 Rs

∴ Amount,

= (5200 + 520)

= 5720 Rs

Question no – (17) 

Solution : 

Loan taken = 16000 Rs

Rate = 15%

Time = 2 years

The Interest will be,

= 16000 × 15 × 1/100

= 2400 Rs

Amount,

= (16000 = 2400)

= 18400 Rs

Balance,

In the question we get,

P = 16,000 Rs

R = 5%

T = 3 years

Amount = 16000 (1 + 5/2 × 100)2n

= 16000 (1 + 5/200) 3 × 2

= 16000 (200 + 5/200)⁶

= 16000 (205/200)⁶

= 16000 × 41/40 × 41/40 × 41/40 × 41/40 × 41/40 × 41/40

= 18,555 Rs

Compound Interest,

= (18555 – 16000)

= 2555 Rs

Hence, the amount is 18,555 and compound interest is 2555 Rs.

Solution : 

From the question we get,

P = 20,000

T = 1 1/2 years = 3/2

R = 10%

Amount = 20,000 (1 + 10/2 × 100) 3/2 × 2

= 20,000 (1 + 10/200)³

= 20,000 (200 + 10/200)³

= 20,000 (210/200)³

= 20,000 × 21/20 × 21/20 × 21/20

= 23152.50

Compound Interest,

= (23152.50 – 20,000)

= 3152.50

Therefore, the amount is 23152.50 and compound interest will be 3152.50.

Question no – (24) 

Solution : 

Given in the question,

P = 32000

T = 1 year

R = 20%

Amount = P (1 + 20/2 × 100)2 × 1

= 32000 (1 + 20/200)²

= 32000 (200 + 20/200)²

= 32000 × (220/200)²

= 32000 × 11/10 × 11/10

= 38,720 Rs

Compound Interest,

= (38,720 – 32000)

= 6720 Rs

Therefore, the amount is 38,720 and compound interest will be 6720 Rs.

Question no – (25) 

Solution : 

In the question we get,

P = 4000

T = 2 years

R = 10%

OR r2 = 15%

Amount = P (1 + r/100) (1 + r2/100)

= 4000 (1 + 10/100) (1 + 15/100)

= 4000 (100 + 10/100) (100 + 15/100)

= 4000 (110/100) × 115/100

= 4000 × 11/10 × 23/20

= 5060 Rs

Compound Interest,

= (5060 – 4000)
