Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option D

88000

Solution :

The correct option is 88000.

To find the simple interest Akshay has to pay, we can use the standard simple interest formula:

S I = P × R × T 100

Where:
- P is the Principal amount borrowed = ₹4,40,000
- R is the Rate of interest per annum = 5%
- T is the Time period in years = 4 years

Substituting the given values into the formula:

S I = 440000 × 5 × 4 100

First, simplify the calculation by dividing 440,000 by 100:

S I = 4400 × 5 × 4

Now, multiply the numbers:

S I = 4400 × 20

S I = 88000

Therefore, Akshay will pay a simple interest of ₹88,000 after 4 years.
