If the rate of interest is 3% more than the previous rate, then what will be the simple interest on same sum in the same time period?

    A) Rs. 900          

    B)                      Rs. 700

    C) Rs. 500          

    D)                      Rs. 800

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    New rate of interest = (6 + 3)% = 9% p.a. Now, \[S.I=\frac{P\times R\times T}{100}\] \[=\frac{2000\times 9\times 5}{100}\] = Rs. 900
