60.60 - 60 =  R x 60  
200 200  
 
     
 
 R = 0.60 x 200  = 2%

Answer : [B]
Explanation :
 
Let the sum be Rs. P. Then,
 
 
 
  p
  1 + 10   2
100
- P    = 525    
 
 
 
P  
  11   2
10
 - 1    = 525    
 
 
 
P =
  525 x 100  
21
 = 2500.    
 
 
 Sum = Rs. 2500.  
 
So, S.I. = Rs.   2500 x 5 x 4    = Rs. 500      
100

Answer : [C]
Explanation :
 
S.I. for first year = Rs. 400
 
S.I. on Rs. 400 for 1 year = Rs. 32
 
 
 
  Rate = 100 x 32  = 8%  
400 x 1  
 
Hence, the difference for 3rd year is S.I. on Rs. 832
 
  = Rs. 832 x 8  
100  
 
  = Rs. 66.56  
 
 
 
 Total difference = Rs. (32 + 66.56)    
 
  = Rs. 98.56
