MEDIUM PROBLEMS
1.The Bankers discount on Rs 1650 due a certain time hence is Rs 165.
find the true discount and the bankers gain.
Sol :-                 Sum = (B.D * T.D) / (B.D – T.D)
                                  = (B.D * T.D) / B.G
                    T.D/B.G = Sum/B.D =650/165 =10/1
                 Thus if B.G is Rs 1 ,T.D = Rs 10
                       if B.D is Rs 11 ,T.D = Rs 10
                       if B.D is Rs 165,T.D = Rs (10/11 * 165) = 150
                             B.G =Rs(165 – 150) = Rs 15
2.The Present worth of a bill due something hence is Rs 1110 and the
    true discount on the bill is Rs.110 . Find the bankes discount & the 
    bankers gain.
Sol:-               T.D = sqrt (P.W * B.G)
                       B.G = (T.D)^2 /P.W
                           = (110 * 110) / 1110
                           = 11
                       B.D = (T.D + B.G)
                           =  (110 + 11)
                           = Rs 121

3.What rate percent does a man get for his money when in discounting
Sol:-      Let the amount of the bill =100
                      Money deducted = 10
   Money received by the holder of the bill = (100 – 10)
                                            = 90
                  S.I on Rs 90 for 10 months = 10
                              Rate = (100 * 10) / (90 * 10/12)
                                   = 13 1/3%
