The true discount on a bill due 9 months hence at 16% per annum is Rs. 189. The amount of the bill is:
Rs. 1386
Rs. 1764
Rs. 1575
Rs. 2268
Explanation:
Let P.W. be Rs. x.
Then, S.I. on Rs. x at 16% for 9 months = Rs. 189.
X $ \times 16 \times \dfrac{9}{12} \times \dfrac{1}{100}=189 or x=1575$
P.W=Rs.1575
Sum of due =P.W +T.D =Rs.(1575+189)=Rs.1764
