Correct answer: D

Concept: Simple interest is directly proportional to time (T) when Principal (P) and Rate (R) are constant.

Given: Interest for 4 years = Rs. 1280.

Proportionality: Interest for 1 year = 1280 / 4 = Rs. 320.

Calculation: Interest for 10 years = Interest for 1 year × 10.

Result: 320 × 10 = Rs. 3200.

Final Answer: Option 4 (3200)
