297

Solution :The cash PRICE of the briefcase =Rs 600
Let the down payment be Rs x ltrbgt Principal amount for EACHMONTH = Rs (600-x) ltrbgt `therefore` TOTAL principal for 3 months (in Rs) =(3600-x)
Interest (in Rs )=x+309-600=x-291ltrbgt `therefore x-291 =(3(600-x)12)/(1200)`
`RARR 10x-29,100=1800-3x`
`rarr 103 x=30,900`
`rarr x=300`
