What is the rate of interest p.c.p.a.? I. An amount doubles itself in 5 years on simple interest. II. Difference between the compound interest and the simple interest earned on a certain amount in 2 years is Rs. 400. III. Simple interest earned per annum is Rs. 2000 Correct Answer I only or II and III only

I.P*R*5100=P⇔R=20

 II.P1+R1002-P-P*R*2100=400=>pR2=4000000

 III.P*R*1100=2000=>PR=200000

 PR2PR=4000000200000⇔R=20

 

Thus I only or (II and III) give answer.

 

 Correct answer is (D)
