Ask EduPadi AI...
Correct Option: B

The rate of interest charge = 51/2% p.a
The amount borrowed = N125, 000:00
Interest charge (=\frac{11}{200} of N125,000<br /> = 11 \times N625.00 = N6,875.00)
The amount refunded by the member with interest charge by the cooperative society
N125,000+N6,875.00 = N131,875.00
