Answer»

RS. 62500; Rs. 37500



Let the sum invested at 9% be Rs. x and that invested at 11% be Rs. (100000 - x). Then,

(x * 9 * 1)/100 + [(100000 - x) * 11 * 1]/100 = (100000 * 39/4 * 1/100)

(9x + 1100000 - 11x)/100 = 39000/4 = 9750

x = 62500

Sum invested at 9% = Rs. 62500

Sum invested at 11% = Rs. (100000 - 62500) = Rs. 37500.
