Answer:

cost of buffallo is 7420

Step-by-step explanation:

simple interest= PTR/100

=(12600×1×15)/100

=1890

so the total debt is 1890+12600

=14490

he gave 7070

so remaining balance is the cost of buffallo

14490-7070

=7420

GiveN:

  • Borrowed amount = Rs. 12600
  • Rate of Interest = 15%
  • Time = 1 year
  • Amount paid = Rs. 7070 + a buffalo

To FinD:

  • Cost of the buffalo?

Step-wise-Step Explanation:

Finding the SI first,

By using formula, SI = PTR / 100,

⇒ SI = 12600 × 1 × 15 / 100

⇒ SI = 1890

Amount to be paid after 1 year:

= Principal + SI

= Rs. 12600 + Rs. 1890

= Rs. 14490

What Hari paid after 1 year?

⇒ Rs. 7070 + A buffalo = Rs. 14490

⇒ Cost of the buffalo = Rs. 14490 - Rs. 7070

⇒ Cost of the buffalo = Rs. 7420

Hence,

  • Cost of the buffalo given away by Hari to clear the debt was Rs. 7420. And we are done!
