Answer
View full question & answer→$P=$ Rs. $200, n=36$ months and $r=11 \%$
$
\begin{aligned}
& I=P \times \frac{n(n+1)}{2 \times 12} \times \frac{r}{100} \\
& \Rightarrow I=R s 200 \times \frac{36 \times 37}{24} \times \frac{11}{100}=\text { Rs } 1221
\end{aligned}
$
Sum deposited Rs. $200 \times 36=$ Rs. 7200
$\therefore$ Amount that kiran gets on maturity $=$ Rs $7200+\operatorname{Rs} 1221=R s 8421$
