Correct Answer: INR 4
Solution : Here, interest for annually counts as simple interest and if the interest rate is half-yearly, then the rate counts as $\frac{5}{2}$ = 2.5% compounded. Required difference = $6400\times (\frac{r}{100})^2$ = $6400\times (\frac{2.5}{100})^2$ = INR 4 Hence, the correct answer is INR 4.
