Solution

Principal for the month of April                =   ₹ 6,000
Principal for the month of May                 =   ₹ 7,000
Principal for the month of June                =  ₹ 10,000
Principal for the month of July                 =    ₹ 6,000
Principal for the month of August            =   ₹ 6,000
Principal for the month of September      =   ₹ 7,000
Total Principal for one month                   =  ₹ 42,000
P = ₹ 42,000,
R = r% per annum, T = `(1)/(12)`
I = ₹ 175

Thus,
I = `"PRT"/(100)`

175 = `(42,000 xx  r)/(100) xx (1)/(2)`

r = `(175 xx 12)/(420)`

= 5%
