Correct Option: A
Here , Banker 's Gain = ₹2.25 , Time = 9 months = | 9 | = | 3 | years |
12 | 4 |
Banker 's Gain is the interest on True Discount .
True discunt = | Banker 's Gain × 100 | |
Rate × Time |
∴ True Discount ( T.D. ) = | 2.25 × 100 | = ₹ 75 |
3/4 × 4 |
Banker 's Discount ( B.D. ) = True Discount ( T.D. ) + Banker 's Gain ( B.G. )
B.D.= ₹75 + ₹2.25 = ₹77.25
∴ Sum due = | B.D. × T.D. | = ₹ | 77.25 × 75 |
B.G. | 2.25 |
Sum due = ₹ 2575.
