Answer 2

Answer:

Rs 150

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  To find the sum which will amount to rupees 165.75 in 3.5 years at 3% per annum simple interest.

We know that S.i = P R T /100

Amount = P + I

= P + (P x R x T)/100

165.75 = P + (P x 3 x 3.5)/100

165.75 = P + 10.5 P /100

16775 = 100 P + 10.5 P

110.5 P = 16775

P = 16775 / 110.5

P = Rs 150

hence the sum will amount to Rs 150
