To find Shikha's balance after 3 years, we need to calculate the interest earned each year and account for her withdrawal.

Calculating Simple Interest

The formula for simple interest is:

Interest = Principal × Rate × Time

Here, the principal amount is Rs. 2000, the interest rate is 6% (or 0.06), and the time is in years.

Year 1

  • Interest for Year 1: 2000 × 0.06 × 1 = Rs. 120
  • Balance after Year 1: 2000 + 120 - 700 = Rs. 1420

Year 2

  • Interest for Year 2: 2000 × 0.06 × 1 = Rs. 120
  • Balance after Year 2: 1420 + 120 = Rs. 1540

Year 3

  • Interest for Year 3: 2000 × 0.06 × 1 = Rs. 120
  • Balance after Year 3: 1540 + 120 = Rs. 1660

Final Balance

After 3 years, Shikha's balance will be Rs. 1660.
