Complete Question

Jessie needs ₹1,70,000 for her College admissions in the starting of January 2021. Her mother helped her by creating a fund of ₹12,000 in the end of January 2019. Thereafter she has been collecting ₹5500 in the starting of each month for Jessie’s college fund. How much money will be collected in the fund before Jessie’s admissions?

Option 1:

₹(12000 + 11(5500))

Option 2:

₹(5500 + 11(12000))

Option 3:

₹(12000 + 23(5500))

Option 4:

₹(5500 + 23(12000))

Answer:

Option 3:

₹(12000 + 23(5500))

Explanation:

In the question above, the total amount of money Jessie needs = ₹1,70,000

Admission starts January 2021.

In January 2019, Jessie's mom started a fund of ₹12,000, and every month after she collected ₹5500 in Jessie's college fund.

The number of months remaining is from February 2019 - December 2020

February 2019 - January 2020 = 12 months

February 2020 - December 2020= 11 Months

Add the total months = 11 Months + 12 Months

= 23 months.

She has been depositing ₹5500 for the 23 months with an initial deposit of ₹12,000

The amount of money that will be collected in the fund before Jessie’s admissions is calculated as:

₹12,000 + 23(₹5500)

= ₹12,000 + ₹126500

= ₹ 138,500

Therefore, the amount of money that will be collected in the fund before Jessie’s admissions is ₹ 138,500 or Option 3) ₹(12,000 + 23(5500))
