In the following question, two statements are numbered as A and B. On solving these statements, we get quantities A and B respectively. Solve both quantities and choose the correct option. Quantity I: The difference between the simple interest when the sum of Rs. 6000 is invested at the rate of interest of 15% for different M years and N years respectively is Rs. 2700. When the same sum is invested for N years at the rate of interest 30% on compound interest then compound interest is Rs. 4140. Find the value of M. Quantity II: When a number is divided by 11, the remainder is 5 and the same number is divisible by 14 then a reminder is 0. The difference between the quotients in both cases is 7. What should be remainder when twice the number is divisible by 10?

Quantity I:
Let P = principal, R = rate of interest and N = time period
Simple Interest = PNR/100
Compound interest = P(1 + R/100)n – P
⇒ 6000 × 15 × M/100 – 6000 × 15 × N/100 = 2700
⇒ 9M – 9N = 27
⇒ M – N = 3
⇒ 4140 = 6000(1 + 30/100)N – 6000
⇒ 1.69 = 1.3N
⇒ N = 2 years
⇒ M = 3 + 2 = 5 years
Quantity II:
Let number be N.
N = quotient A × 11 + 5
N = quotient B × 14 + 0
⇒ Quotient B × 14 = quotient A × 11 + 5
⇒ Quotient A – quotient B = 7
⇒ (quotient A – 7) × 14 = quotient A × 11 + 5
⇒ quotient A × 14 - 98 = quotient A × 11 + 5
⇒ Quotient A = 103/3
⇒ Quotient B = 124/3
⇒ N = 124/3 × 11 + 5 = 1379/3
⇒ 2N = 2 × 1379/3 = 2758/3
Remainder is 14 when 2758/3 are divided by 10.
So, we can observe Quantity I < Quantity II.
