Detailed Solution

We are given that P= Rs 6000, amount = Rs 6360, R = 8% p.a.
The formula for simple interest,
S.I= P×R×T 100  
Where, S.I is simple interest. P=principal. R=rate percent. T=time.
The formula for amount,
Amount =Sum+S.I.  
Assume the time as t years.
Apply formula,
Amount =Sum+S.I.  
6360=6000+S.I   Substituting the formula of S.I and putting values of P, R and T, we get,
. 6360=6000+ 6000×8×t 100 6360=6000 1+ 8×t 100 6360 6000 =1+ 8×t 100 6360 6000 1= 8×t 100   Simplifying further,
  63606000 6000 = 8×t 100 360 6000 = 8×t 100 t= 360 6000 × 100 8 t= 6 8 ×12 months   Therefore, t=9 months  
Thus, the correct option is 2.
