      Question

      she kept withdrawing Rs. 5,000 after every one year, then find the total interest earned by Neha at the end of three years. [Consider that the interest is payable at the end of three years, only]
      A Rs. 6,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 5,400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 6,300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 5,700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Simple interest = Sum × rate of interest × time period ÷ 100
      So, interest earned in the first year
      = 25000 × 12 × 1 ÷ 100 = Rs. 3,000
      And interest earned in the second year
      = (25000 − 5000) × 12 × 1 ÷ 100 = Rs. 2,400
      And interest earned in the third year
      = (25000 − 10000) × 12 × 1 ÷ 100 = Rs. 1,800
      So, total interest earned = 3000 + 2400 + 1800 = Rs. 7,200
