      A 11,300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 11,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 11,400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 11,200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      We can use the formula for finding the simple interest to find the principal amount: I = (PRT)/100 6840 = (P x 12 x 5)/100 6840 = (P x 60)/100 6840 x 100 = P x 60 684000 = P x 60 P = 684000/60 P = 11400
