Question

how much simple interest will rs 2000earn in 18 months at 6% per annum?

Answer 1

Hey friend

Here is your answer

Principal (P) =Rs. 2000

Time(t)=18 months =1.5 years

rate(r)=6%

SI=(P×r×t)/100

SI=(2000×1.5×6)/100

SI=180

SIMPLE INTEREST =Rs. 180

Answer 2

Answer:

The simple interest will be $Rs.180$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for simple interest is given as:

S.I = $\frac{P\cdot R\cdot T}{100}$, ...... (1)

where $P$ is Principal , $R$ is rate of interest in % per annum and $T$ is time (in years).

Since $P=Rs.2000$

$T=18$ months

   $=1$ year + 6 months

   $=1.5$ years

$R=6$% per annum

From (1), we get

S.I = $\frac{(2000)(6)(1.5)}{100}$

    = $2$ × $6$ × $15$

    = $Rs.180$

Therefore, the simple interest will be $Rs.180$.
