    A Rs.900 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.480 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.620 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the invested amount be Rs. 'P'

    Formula of simple interest = (P × R × T) ÷ 100

    ATQ;

    2250 = (P × 9 × 5) ÷ 100

    Or, P = 2250 ÷ 0.45

    Or, P = 5000

    Required interest = (5000 × 6 × 3) ÷ 100 = Rs. 900
