Q.At an annual simple interest rate of 10%, if the interest for 5 years is x rupees, then the principal amount: (a) ₹ 2x (b) ₹ 4x (c) ₹ 10x (d) ₹ 20x
Answer: A
Time \( (t) = 5 \) years
Rate of interest \( (r) = 10 \% \)
Interest \( (I) = x \) rupees

Therefore, Principal \( (p) = \cfrac{100 \times I}{t \times r} \)
\( = \cfrac{100 \times x}{5 \times 10} = 2x \) rupees.
