Solution

The formula for simple interest is I = PRT, where I is the interest, P is the principal amount, R is the rate of interest, and T is the time.

In this case, we know that the interest (I) is 9000 rupees, the rate of interest (R) is 15% or 0.15, and the time (T) is 3 years. We need to find the principal amount (P).

So, we rearrange the formula to solve for P:

P = I / (RT)

Substituting the given values:

P = 9000 / (0.15 * 3)

P = 9000 / 0.45

P = 20000 rupees

So, the principal amount borrowed by Ganeskar is 20000 rupees.
