Solution : Given: Sum INR 20,000 and INR 40,000 are given on simple interest at the rate of 10 percent and 15 percent per annum respectively for three years. We know the formula, $SI=\frac{P\times R\times T}{100}$ where $SI$, $P$, $R$, and $T$ are the simple interest, principal, rate, and time. SI for the rate of 10% is, ⇒ $SI=\frac{20000\times10\times3}{100}=$ INR 6,000 SI for the rate of 15% is, ⇒ $SI=\frac{40000\times15\times3}{100}=$ INR 18,000 The total simple interest = INR 6,000 + INR 18,000 = INR 24,000. Hence, the correct answer is INR 24,000.
