A.

$6300

B.

$6800

C.

$6200

D.

$6500

Correct option is D

Given:
Principal (P) = $5000
Rate of interest (R) = 10% per annum
Time (T) = 3 years
Formula Used:

SI=P×R×T100SI = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100}

Amount = Principal + Simple Interest
Solution:

SI=5000×10×3100=1500Amount=P+SI=5000+1500=6500\\SI = \frac{5000 \times 10 \times 3}{100} = 1500 \\\text{Amount} = P + SI = 5000 + 1500 = 6500 \\
