The interest on a certain deposit at 4.5% p.a. is Rs. 202.50 in one year. How much will the additional interest in one year be on the same deposit at 5% p.a. ?

View Answer

Correct choice: A

Explanation:

We know that I = PTR/100 => P = 20250/4.5 = 4500 Now, new Interest at 5% = 4500x1x5/100 = 225 Now the additional amount = 225 - 202.5 = Rs. 22.5
49 / 98
