Answer : 4. "Data is not sufficient"
Explanation :
Answer: D) Data is not sufficient Explanation: Let the sum be Rs. p, rate be R% p.a. and time be T years. Then, P×T×(R+2)100-P×T×R100=108 ⇒2PT= 10800 ...... (1) And, P×R×(T+2)100-P×R×T100=180 ⇒2PR = 18000 ......(2) Clearly, from (1) and (2), we cannot find the value of pSo, the data is not sufficient.
