Correct Answer - Option 2 : 540
Given
A borrows a sum of Rs.9,000 for 3 years at 5% simple interest
He lends it at simple interest to B at 7% for 3 years
Formula used
SI = (P × R × T)/100
SI = Simple Interest
P = Principal
R = Rate
T = Time
Calculation
Principal = 9000
⇒ SI for A = (9000 × 3 × 5)/100
⇒ SI = Rs.1350
⇒ He lends to B at 7% for 3 years
⇒ SI = (9000 × 7 × 3)/100
⇒ SI = Rs.1890
⇒ Profit = 1890 - 1350
⇒ Rs.540
∴ His gain is Rs.540
