What is rate of simple interest for first 4 years if sum of Rs. 360 becomes Rs. 540 in 9 years and rate of interest for last 5 years is 6%?

$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Interest}}\,{\text{for}}\,{\text{the}}\,{\text{last}}\,{\text{5}}\,{\text{years}} \cr & = \frac{{PTR}}{{100}} \cr & = \frac{{360 \times 5 \times 6}}{{100}} = Rs.\,108 \cr & {\text{Interest}}\,{\text{for}}\,{\text{year}} = 540 - 360 = 180 \cr & {\text{So,}}\,{\text{interest}}\,{\text{for}}\,{\text{first}}\,{\text{four}}\,{\text{years}} \cr & = 180 - 108 = Rs.\,72; \cr & {\text{Now,}}\,{\text{rate}}\,{\text{for}}\,{\text{first}}\,{\text{four}}\,{\text{years}} \cr & = \frac{{ {72 \times 100} }}{{360 \times 4}} \cr & = 5\% \cr} $$
