Answer:
The annual rate of interest = 6%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Amount borrowed = Rs. 8000
Time = 3 years
Amount paid after 3 years = 1440 + principal
To find
The rate of interest
Solution:
Recall the formula
Amount = Principal +simple interest ------------(1)
Simple interest = , where P, is the principal, T is the time period and R is the rate of interest
Since the amount paid after three years, is 1440 more than the principal
A = P + 1440
From equation (1) we have Simple interest after 3 years = 1440
We have, principal p = 8000
Time = T = 3
By substituting these values we get
8000×3×R = 144000
R = 6 %
∴The annual rate of interest = 6%
