Correct answer: D. 6⅔ % and 6⅔ yrs.6⅔ % और 6⅔ वर्ष

Explanation

Let the rate = time = R. Simple interest = P × R × R ÷ 100 = 4P/9, so R² = 400/9 and R = 20/3 = 6⅔. Hence the rate is 6⅔ % and the time is 6⅔ years.मान लीजिए दर = समय = R। साधारण ब्याज = P × R × R ÷ 100 = 4P/9, अतः R² = 400/9 और R = 20/3 = 6⅔। अतः दर 6⅔ % और समय 6⅔ वर्ष है।
