A man borrowed Rs. 12500 at a simple interest of 8% per annum for 1 year and 73 days. How much amount did he pay to clear his debt?1). Rs. 135002). Rs. 137003). Rs. 142504). Rs. 14500

Answer»

Time = 1 + 73/365 = 1 + 1/5 = 6/5 yrs.

Now,

Simple INTEREST = (Principal × RATE × time)/100 = (12500 × 8 × 6/5)/100 = Rs. 1200

∴ Amount paid to clear DEBT = 12500 + 1200 = Rs. 13700
