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%
