  Simple Interest = (Principal Amount) x (Rate) x (Time)

  In this case, we know the simple interest is Rs. 4016.25, the rate is 9% per annum, and the time is 5 years. Let’s substitute these values into the formula and solve for the principal amount:

  4016.25 = (Principal Amount) x (0.09) x (5)

  Now, let’s solve for the principal amount:

  4016.25 = 0.45 x (Principal Amount)

  Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.45:

  (Principal Amount) = 4016.25 / 0.45

  (Principal Amount) = 8925

  Therefore, the sum of money is Rs. 8925.
