Explanation

Time = 1 year 3 months = 1.25 years. SI = (P * R * T) / 100 = (24000 * 2.5 * 1.25) / 100 = 240 * 3.125 = 750.

AI explanation

First, convert the time of 1 year and 3 months into 1.25 years, then apply the Simple Interest formula: Simple Interest = (Principal * Rate * Time) / 100. The calculation is (24000 * 2.5 * 1.25) / 100, which results in Rs. 750.
