Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : Rs. 2,000

Given:

Interest on the second part of money = Rs. 6,000

Rate of interest is 10% and 20%

Formula used:

S.I = (P × R × T)/100

Here, S.I, P, R and T is simple interest, Principle, Rate and Time respectively

Calculation:

Let the investment in two banks be 2x and 3x

S.I = (3x × 20 × 1)/100

⇒ 6,000 = 3x/5

⇒ x = 10,000

Now, Investment of A = 20,000

S.I = (20,000 × 10 × 1)/100 = 2,000

∴ The interest in the first part is Rs. 2,000
