Step-by-step explanation:

let time be 7 half years

and rate of interest =10/2=5%

• simple interest = prt/100 = 60000 ×5×7/100 = Rs21000
• compound interest = p(1 + r/100)^t - p= (60000(1+5/100)^7) - 60000=((60000×105^7)/100^7) - 60000= 84426.03 -60000 =Rs. 24426.03
• difference = 24426.03 -21000 = Rs.3426.03
