1. Identify the principal amount: P = 6000
2. Convert the annual nominal rate to a semiannual rate:r = 0.15/2 = 0.075
3. Convert the time period from bi-monthly to half-years:n = 2/6 = \frac{1}{3}
4. Apply the simple interest formula:I = P \times r \times n
5. Calculate the interest:I = 6000 \times 0.075 \times \frac{1}{3} = 150
