Answer» Given :<P>Let :✪ For Rate = 15% p.a.
✪ For Rate = 20% p.a.
Formula used :✪ I = P×r×t Solution :
✪ For Rate = 15% ➮ I = P ×(15/100)× 3 ➮ I = 0.45 P ....... equation 3 ✪ For Rate = 20% ➮ I' = P' × (20/100)×3 ➮ I' = 0.6P' .......... equation 4 ✪ Adding equation, 3 & 4 , we get; ➮ I + I' = 0.45P + 0.6P' Putting VALUE of (I+I') & P' from equation 2 & 1 respectively, we get; ➮ 139500 = 0.45P + 0.6(270000 - P) ➮ 139500 = 0.45P + 162000 - 0.6P ➮ 0.6P - 0.45P = 162000 - 139500 ➮ 0.15P = 22500 ➮ P = 22500 ÷ 0.15 ➮ P = ₹ 1,50,000 ✪ Putting value of P in equation 1, we get; ➮ P' = ₹2,70,000 - ₹1,50,000 ➮ P' = ₹1,20,000 ANSWER :✪ Amount invested in rate = 15% p.a. ➮ INR 1,50,000 ✪ Amount invested in rate = 20% p.a. ➮ INR 1,20,000 |
