What is the simple interest on ₹2,000 for 4 years at the rate of 10% per annum?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. ₹800

We need to find simple interest on ₹2,000 for 4 years at the rate of 10% per annum

As we know,

Simple interest = PrincipalxRatexTime100 \dfrac{Principal x Rate x Time}{100}

Here, P = 2000, R = 10, T= 4

SI = 2000 x 10 x 4/100

⇒ SI = 800
