Ques - What is the sum of amount which gives Rs. 6300 as interest @ 7% per annum of simple interest in 7(1/2) years?

(a) 36000

(b) 24000

(c) 63000

(d) 12000

Solution - 

Given,

S.I = 6300

P = ?

T = 7(1/2)

R = 7%

S.I = (P×R×T) / 100

6300 = ( P × 7 × 7(1/2) ) / 100

6300 = ( P × 7 × (15/2) ) / 100

6300 = 105 P / 200

1260000 = 105 P

P = 1260000 / 105

P = 12000

Therefore,

The sum of amount is 12,000.

Hence,

The correct answer is option (d) 12000.
