The dividend received from a 5% stock of Rs. 10 is Rs. 150. Calculate the number of shares owned.
Answer:
300
Dividend per share = 5% of Rs. 10 = Rs. 0.50. Total dividend = Number of shares × Dividend per share. 150 = Number of shares × 0.50. Number of shares = 150 / 0.50 = 300.

If the income from a 12% stock of Rs. 50 is Rs. 1,200, find the number of shares held.
Answer:
200
Dividend per share = 12% of Rs. 50 = Rs. 6. Total income = Number of shares × Dividend per share. 1200 = Number of shares × 6. Number of shares = 1200 / 6 = 200.

The annual income from a 9% stock of Rs. 100 is Rs. 450. How many shares are held by the investor?
Answer:
50
Dividend per share = 9% of Rs. 100 = Rs. 9. Total income = Number of shares × Dividend per share. 450 = Number of shares × 9. Therefore, Number of shares = 450 / 9 = 50.
