Correct Answer: Rs. 8000
Solution : Given: A sum fetched a simple interest of Rs. 3360 at a rate of 6% per year in 7 years. Total interest ($I$) = Rs. 3360 Rate of interest ($R$) = 6% Time ($T$) = 7 years So, the total sum ($P$) = $\frac{100×I}{R×T}$ = $\frac{100×3360}{6×7}$ = Rs. 8000 Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 8000.
