Solution

Given
Principal amount, P = ₹ 550
Time period, t = ½ year
Rate of interest, r = 8% p.a.

We know that simple interest = (P × r × t)/100

On substituting these values in above equation we get

SI = (550 × ½ × 8)/100

= ₹22

Total amount paid after ½ year = Principal amount + Interest

= ₹550 + ₹22

= ₹572
