Correct Answer: INR 3000
Solution : Rate, $R$ = 20% Term, $n$ = 4 Let $P$ be the principal. Amount = INR 5400 Simple interest = $5400 - P$ We know, Simple interest = $\frac{\text{Principal × Rate × Time}}{100}$ $⇒5400 - P=\frac{P×20×4}{100}$ $⇒5400=\frac{4P}{5} + P$ $\therefore P=\frac{5400×5}{9} = 3000$ Hence, the correct answer is INR 3000.
