Understanding the question is the trick to solve this type of question in a faster way. This question can be done in a simpler way if the student right away see that is nothing but a question of compound interest for 2 years. The interest are 605 and 9 for the amount 5 lacks. So total interest after 2 years is : 6. 5+9+ ( (6. 5*9) /100). Ie; by using formula x+y+xy/100. So interest is 16. 085%. And interest is 500000*16. 085% = 80425. Now simple 500000 + 80425 is the answer or just you can see the option after calculating the interest. |

In 1996, 5,00,0000 invested for 6.5%interest. 5,00,000 * 6.5/100 = 32,500. Received = 5,00,000 + 32,500 = 5,32,5000. Then invested for one more year in another company for 9% interest. So, 5,32,500 * 9/100 = 47,925. Principle amount 5,32,500+ interest amount 47,925. Answer is= 5,80,425. |
