Correct Answer: Rs. 2,200
Solution : Given: Principal = Rs. 2,000 Rate (R) = 5% Time = 2 years, Simple interest = $\frac{\text{Principal×Rate×Time}}{100}$ ⇒ Simple interest $=\frac{2000×5×2}{100}$ ⇒ Simple interest $=200$ ∴ Required amount = Principal + Simple interest = Rs.(2000 + 200) = Rs. 2200 Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 2200.
