Question

The simple interest on a sum of money
at 10% per annum for 6 year is half the
sum. Then, the sum is?
Rs. 5000​

Answer 1

Given:-

• The simple interest on a sum of money
• at 10% per annum for 6 year is half the
• sum.

⠀

To find:-

• The sum.

⠀

Solution:-

Let,

• the sum be Rs.x.

⠀

According to the question,

⠀

Here,

• Simple Interest = Rs (x/2)
• Time = 6 years
• Rate = 10% per annum

⠀

⇢ SI = (P × R × T)/100

⠀

where,

• R = Rate
• T = Time
• SI = Simple Interest

⠀

Now,

⇢ (x/2) = (x × 10 × 6)/100

⇢ (1/2) = (6/10)

⠀

★ Which is not true, so it is not a possible case.

Answer 2

Answer:

Not possible

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sum be Rs y

Since, simple interest= Rs ( y / 2) and,

T= 6 year

R =10% per annum.

So simple interest,

SI=(P×R×T) / 100

Where, R=Rate

T=Time

SI=Simple interest

Now according to problem, (Y/2) =(Y×10×6)/100

=(1/2) = (6/10)

Which is not true, So it is Not possible
