Question 147

The rate of simple interest per annum of bank being decreased from 5% to $$3\frac{1}{2}$$ %, the annual income of a person from interest was less by ₹105. The sum deposited at the bank was

Solution

Given, rate of interest decreases from 5% to 3$$\frac{3}{2}$$ and annual income of a person from interest was less by 105rs

Then the difference is given by,

5% - 3$$\frac{3}{2}$$% = 105 (or) $$\frac{(10 - 7)}{2}$$% = 105 (or) 1% = 70

$$\Rightarrow$$ 100% = 7000

Hence, option A is the correct answer.
