Answer : Option C
Explanation :
Let the the sum of money(P) be Rs.x
Time(T) = 3 1â„8 Years = 25â„8 Years
Simple interest (SI) = xâ„4
$MF#%\text{Rate of interest per annum(R) = }\dfrac{100 \times \text{SI}}{\text{PT}} = \dfrac{100 \times \dfrac{x}{4}}{x \times \dfrac{25}{8}} = \dfrac{100 \times x \times 8}{4 \times x \times 25} = 8\%$MF#%
