    Solution

    Interest received from scheme β€˜A’ = (7500 Γ— 16 Γ— 3) Γ· 100 = Rs. 3600 Let the rate of simple interest offered by scheme β€˜B’ = β€˜k%’ p.a. ATQ; (6000 Γ— 2 Γ— k) Γ· 100 = 3600 Or, 120k = 3600 Or, k = (3600/120) = 30 So, rate of simple interest offered by scheme β€˜B’ = 30% per annum.
