interest earned in 2 years.
Solution:  
     Given   :P=1,000,  n=2   year =24\;\; \text{ Given }\;: P=\text{₹} 1,000,\; n=2 \; \text{ year } =24
     months,   r=6%    \;\; \text{ months, }\; r=6\% \; \text{. }\;
    I  =P×  n(n+1)2×  r12×100\;\; I\; = P \times\; \frac{n(n+1)}{2} \times\; \frac{r}{12 \times 100}
  =1,000×  24(24+1)2×  612×100\; = 1,000 \times\; \frac{24(24+1)}{2} \times\; \frac{6}{12 \times 100}
  =1,000×  24×252×  612×100\; = 1,000 \times\; \frac{24 \times 25}{2} \times\; \frac{6}{12 \times 100}
  =1,500.\; = \text{₹} 1,500 .
