Dear Student,

Simple interest can be found out using the formula

SI=P×R×T100where SI=41.75,P=835,R=254,T=? yearsPutting values41.75=835×25×T4×10016×41.75=835×TT=16×41.75835T=0.79904 years.As we have to find the day on which we received this intereset, we will convert the above time in daysNumber  of days in 1 year=365Number of days in 0.79904 years=365×0.79904=291.65 days292 days.so date on which interest was paid=5 June 2009 +292 days=24 Mar 2010
