Answer : [A]
Explanation :
 
We have (A's present share) 1 + 4 7  = (B's present share) 1 + 4 9        
100 100        
 
 
 
  A's present share = 1 + 4 2  
B's present share 100  
 
  = 26 2 = 676    
25 625    
 
  Dividing Rs. 3903 in the ratio of 676:625  
 
 
 
  A's present share = 676  of Rs. 3903
(676+625)
 
 

=

Rs. 2028
 
  B's present share  = Rs. 3903 - Rs. 2028  
 
 

=

Rs. 1875

Answer : [B]
Explanation :
 
  Let P be the sum.  
 
 
Amount after one year = P + 5% of P = 21P  
20  
 
  Amount after two years = 21P  + 10% of 21P        
20 20        
 
  21P  + 21P = 231P    
20 20 200    
 
  Amount after threee years  
 
    = 231P  + 20% of 231P  
    200 200  
 
    = 231P  + 231P = 1386P    
    200 200 1000    
 
 
 
  1386P  = 16632
 
 P = 12000.

Answer : [D]
Explanation :
 
Interest on Rs. 100 for the year = Rs. 4
 
Interest on Rs. 100 for the second year
 
   = 100  
  1 + 4   2 - 1
100
   - 4    
     
 
   = Rs. 4.16  
 
Now if Rs. 4.16 - Rs. 4 = Rs. 0.16 is the difference then principal = Rs. 100
 
Now if Rs. 88 is the difference then principal = 100 x 88  = Rs. 55,000
