The sum invested in scheme B is twice the sum invested in scheme A. Investment in scheme A is made for 3 years at 8% p.a. simple interest and in Scheme B for 2 years at 9% p.a. simple interest. The total interest earned from both the schemes is Rs. 1800. How much was invested in Scheme A?1). Rs. 40002). Rs. 35003). Rs. 30004). Rs. 2500

Answer»

Solution

scheme A has 8 % SI and scheme B has 9 % SI

Let the SUM invested in A = RS y then sum invested in B = Rs 2y

Total interest EARNED = Rs 1800

Time = 2 yearsfor scheme B and 3 years for scheme A

So

$\frac{24y}{100}$ + $\frac{36y}{100}$ = 1800

y = 180000/60


y= 3000
