CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. SI=P×R×T100=8000×6×3100\text{SI} = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100} = \frac{8000 \times 6 \times 3}{100}.

  2. SI = ₹1,440.

Worth noting

₹480 is only one year's interest, and ₹9,440 is the amount (principal + interest), not the interest.

Concept
Simple interest from SI = PRT/100
