  1. If $ 10 be allowed as true discount on a bill of $ 110 due at the end of certain time, then the discount allowed on the same amount due at the end of double the time is :
    1. $ 20
    2. $ 21.81
    3. $ 22
    4. $ 18.33
Correct Option: D

Given :- Amount = $ 110
S.I. on $ (110 - 10) for a given time = $ 10
S.I. on $ 100 for double the time = $ 20
Sum = $ (100 + 20) = $ 120

∴ True discount = Amount x Rate x Time
100 + Rate x Time

T.D. on $ 110 = $ 20 x 110= $ 18.33
120
