Answer» Total AMOUNT is Rs. 2600 Let the part given on 10% per ANNUM is = P Then sum lent at 9% per annum is = 2600 – P S.I. on amount P for 5 years at 10% = $(\frac{{P \TIMES 10 \times 5}}{{100}})$ S.I. on amount (2600 – p) for 6 yr at 9 % $(= \frac{{\left( {2600\;-\;p} \RIGHT) \times 6 \times 9}}{{100}})$ Given, Both S.I. are equal: $(\frac{{\left( {P \times 10 \times 5} \right)}}{{100}} = \frac{{\left( {2600\;-\;p} \right) \times 6 \times 9}}{{100}})$ ⇒ 50P = 140,400 - 54P ⇒ 104P = 140,400 ⇒ P = 140,400/104 = 1350 ∴ Sum lent at 9% per annum is = 2600 – 1350 = Rs. 1250 |
