Consider the simple interest of the following (A) A sum of Rs 200 at 6% per annum for 5 yr. (B) A sum of Rs 2000 at 131/2% per annum for 4 yr. (C) A sum of Rs 2600 at 4% per annum for 5 yr. (D) A sum of Rs 68000 at 162/3% per annum for 9 months. Arrange the above in descending order. Choose the correct answer from the options given below: Option 1: (A), (B), (D), (C) Option 2: (A), (B), (C), (D) Option 3: (D), (B), (C), (A) Option 4: (A), (D), (C), (B)

Answer: (D), (B), (C), (A). Solution: Using SI = PRT/100: (A) (200 x 6 x 5)/100 = 60; (B) (2000 x 13.5 x 4)/100 = 1080; (C) (2600 x 4 x 5)/100 = 520; (D) (68000 x 50/3 x 3/4)/100 = 8500. Descending order: (D), (B), (C), (A).

(A), (B), (C), (D)

(D), (B), (C), (A)

(A), (D), (C), (B)

✅ Correct Option: 3

Using $SI = \frac{PRT}{100}$ : (A) $\frac{200 \times 6 \times 5}{100} = 60$ ; (B) $\frac{2000 \times 13.5 \times 4}{100} = 1080$ ; (C) $\frac{2600 \times 4 \times 5}{100} = 520$ ; (D) $\frac{68000 \times \frac{50}{3} \times \frac{3}{4}}{100} = 8500$ . Descending order: (D), (B), (C), (A).
