Correct Answer: Rs. 28800


Solution : Given: A principal of Rs. 16000 is invested at simple interest for 4 years. If the per annum rate of interest is 20 percent.
We know, Simple interest = $\frac{\text{Principal × Rate × Time}}{100}$
According to the question,
$\therefore$ Simple interest $=\frac{16000\times 4\times 20}{100}=$ Rs. 12800
Amount = Principal + Simple interest = 16000 + 12800 = Rs. 28800
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 28800.
