    Question

    A man invested Rs. 75,000 at the rate of 7 1/2% per annum Simple Interest for 6 years, Find the amount he will receive after 6 years.

    A.

    Rs. 69,000

    B.

    Rs. 75,000

    C.

    Rs. 1,12,500

    D.

    Rs. 1,08,750

    Correct option is D

    Given:
    Principal (P) = Rs. 75,000
    Rate of interest (R) = 712%7\frac{1}{2} \%  = 7.5% per annum
    Time (T) = 6 years
    Formula Used:
    In simple interest (SI), the interest earned is calculated as:
    SI = P×R×T100\frac{P×R×T}{100}​​
    The total amount A received after T years is the sum of the principal and the simple interest:
    A = P + SI
    Solution:
    The simple interest (SI):
    SI = 75000×7.5×6100\frac{75000×7.5×6}{100} ​​​
    SI = 75000×45100=3375000100 \frac{75000×45}{100} = \frac{3375000}{100}  = 33750
    Now, the total amount A:
    A = P + SI = 75000 + 33750 = 108750
    Thus, The amount he will receive after 6 years is Rs. 1,08,750.
