A sum was put at simple interest at a certain rate for 3 years. Had it been put at 2% higher rate, it would have fetched Rs 360 more. Find the sum.

ARs 4000
BRs 5000
CRs 6000
DRs 7000

✓ Correct Answer: CRs 6000

Extra Interest = (P * T * Extra Rate)/100 => 360 = (P * 3 * 2)/100 => 360 = 6P/100 => P = 6000.
