Simple Interest Calculation
This question requires calculating the Simple Interest (SI) based on the given principal amount, rate, and time.
Key Information
- Principal (P): ₹75,000
- Rate (R): 5% per annum
- Time (T): 5 years
Simple Interest Formula
The formula to calculate simple interest is:
$SI = (P × R × T) / 100$
Where:
- $P$ is the Principal amount
- $R$ is the Rate of interest (in percent per annum)
- $T$ is the Time period (in years)
Calculation Steps
- Substitute the values into the formula:
$SI = (75,000 × 5 \text{ %} × 5) / 100$
- Simplify the expression:
$SI = (75,000 × 25) / 100$
- Calculate the final amount:
$SI = 750 × 25$
$SI = 18,750$
Result
The calculated Simple Interest is ₹18,750.
