11. A sum of $₹14,000$ amounts to $₹22,400$ in $12$ years in simple interest. What is the rate of interest? | |
A. $7\%$ | B. $6\%$ |
C. $5\%$ | D. $4\%$ |
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Simple interest(SI) for $12$ years $=22400-14000=8400$
$\text{R}=\dfrac{100×\text{SI}}{\text{PT}}=\dfrac{100×8400}{14000×12}=5$
