A certain sum of money at simple interest amounted Rs.840 in 10 years at 3% per annum, find the sum?

  • A.Rs.500
  • B.Rs.515
  • C.Rs.525
  • D.None

Answer: D

\[ \text{SI} = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100} \]

\[ 840 = P\left(1 + \frac{3 \times 10}{100}\right) = 1.3P \]

\[ P = \frac{840}{1.3} = \text{Rs. } 646.15 \]

That value appears nowhere on the list, so the answer is none. The Rs. 525 offered would amount to only Rs. 682.50 over the same ten years.
