Simple Interest S . I S.I = R s . 840 Rs.840 , R R = 5 % 5\% , T T = 8 8 years.

We know the formula S . I = P . R . T 100 S.I = \dfrac{P . R. T}{100}

Principal, P P = R s Rs 100.840 5.8 \dfrac{100 . 840}{5 . 8}

P P = R s . 2100 Rs.2100

Now, for calculating rate of interest, S . I S.I and T T are same and P P = R s . 2100 Rs.2100

So, R R = 100.840 2100.5 \dfrac{100 . 840}{2100 . 5} which gives us 8 % 8\%
