A Correct answer
Explanation

$P=Rs.12,500$

$T=3$ years
$R=8 \%,10 \%, 10 \%,$ 
$A=?,C.I.=?$
$A=P\left(1+\cfrac{R}{100} \right )^T$

$=12500\left(1+\cfrac{8}{100}\right)\left(1+\cfrac{10}{100}\right)\left(1+\cfrac{10}{100}\right)$
$=12500\times \cfrac{108}{100}\times \cfrac{110}{100}\times \cfrac{110}{100}$
$=\cfrac{125\times 108\times 121}{100}$
$A=Rs.  16,335$
$C.I.=A-P$
$C.I=16335-12500$
$C.I=Rs. 3835$ 

Multiple choice mathematics and statistics interest applying compound interest compound interest formula with different successive rate of interest compound interest ( for different time period)

Raj borrows Rs.$16,000$; out of which Rs.$9,000$ at $5\%$ and remaining at $6\%$. Find the total interest paid by him in $4$ years.

  1. $1600$
  2. $3480$
  3. $3600$
  4. $3300$

B Correct answer
Explanation

${ I } _{ 1 }=\dfrac { P\times R\times T1 }{ 100 } =\dfrac { 9000\times 5\times 4 }{ 100 } =Rs.1800$


${ I } _{ 2 }=\dfrac { 7000\times 6\times 4 }{ 100 } =Rs.1680$


$\therefore $ Total Interest $=Rs.1800+Rs.1680=Rs.3480$

In a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD, $\displaystyle \angle ABC=60^{\circ}$ and if O be the centre of the circle then the measure of $\displaystyle \angle OAC$ is

  1. $\displaystyle 20^{\circ}$
  2. $\displaystyle 30^{\circ}$
  3. $\displaystyle 40^{\circ}$
  4. $\displaystyle 50^{\circ}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

In a cyclic quadrilateral, the angle subtended by a chord at the center is twice the angle at the circumference. If angle ABC = 60, the central angle AOC = 120. In triangle OAC, OA = OC (radii), so angle OAC = (180 - 120)/2 = 30 degrees.
