    What annual instalment will discharge a debt of Rs. 6450 due in 4 yr at 5% simple interest?

    A) Rs. 1500

    B)        Rs. 1835

    C)  Rs. 1935

    D)  Rs. 1950

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let each instalment be Rs. x
    Then, \[\left( x+\frac{x\times 5\times 1}{100} \right)+\left( x+\frac{x\times 5\times 2}{100} \right)\]\[+\left( x+\frac{x\times 5\times 3}{100} \right)+x=6450\]
    \[\Rightarrow \] \[\left( x+\frac{x}{20} \right)+\left( x+\frac{x}{10} \right)+\left( x+\frac{3x}{20} \right)+x=6450\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{21x}{20}+\frac{11x}{10}+\frac{23x}{20}+x=6450\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{21x+22x+23x+20x}{20}=6450\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{86x}{20}=6450\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=\frac{6450\times 20}{86}\]= Rs. 1500
