A sum was put at simple interest at a certain rate for 3 years. Had it been put at 2% higher rate, it would have fetched Rs. 360 more. Find the sum. Choose one
A) 3000	B) 6000	C) 2000	D) 4000	E) None of them
Let sum = P and original rate = R.   Then, [ (P*(R+2)*3)/100] – [ (P*R*3)/100] = 360.   = 3PR + 6P - 3PR = 36000  6P=36000  P=6000   Hence, sum = Rs. 6000.   Answer is 6000.
