Let assume lent sum=x
Si=x-340
Si =prt/100
X-340=4*x*8/100
X-340= 8x/25
8x=25x-8500
25x-8x=8500
17x=8500
X=8500/17
X=500

The sum is 500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sum be x

We are given that interest earned is  Rs340 less than the sum lent

Interest = x-340

Time = 8 years

Rate of interest = 4%

Formula : SI = \frac{P \times T \times R}{100}\\x-340=\frac{x \times 8 \times 4}{100}\\x=500

Hence The sum is 500
