    If X, Y, Z are the three sums of money such that Y is a simple interest on X and Z is a simple interest on Y for same time and rate, then

    A) \[{{\text{X}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }=\text{ YZ}\]      

    B)        \[~{{\text{Y}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }=\text{ ZX}\]  

    C) \[{{\text{Z}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }=\text{ XY}\]      

    D)         XYZ = 1

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     et time = tyrs and Rate \[=\text{ }r%\] In first case, Sum = X. \[\therefore \] Interest, \[Y=\frac{X\times t\times y}{100}\] or            \[\frac{Y}{X}=\frac{t\times r}{100}\]                        ??(i) In second case, Sum = Y, \[\therefore \]  Interest,  \[Z=\frac{Y\times t\times r}{100}\] or            \[\frac{Z}{Y}=\frac{t\times r}{100}\]                        ..?..(ii) From equations (i) and (ii), we get                                 \[\frac{Y}{X}=\frac{Z}{Y}\]                 \[\therefore \]  \[{{Y}^{2}}=ZX\]
