A
$1460$
B
$1365$
C
$1260$
D
None of these
Solution
(c) We have, $C I-S I=\frac{S I}{3}\left[\left(\frac{R}{100}\right)^{2}+3\left(\frac{R}{100}\right)\right]$
$\Rightarrow 11324.05- SI =\frac{ SI }{3}\left[\left(\frac{5}{100}\right)^{2}+3\left(\frac{5}{100}\right)\right]$
$=\frac{ SI }{3}\left[\frac{1+60}{20 \times 20}\right]=\frac{61 S I}{1200}$
$\Rightarrow\left(1+\frac{61}{1200}\right) SI =1324 \cdot 05$
$\Rightarrow \quad SI =\frac{1324.05 \times 1200}{1261}=₹ 1260$
