    A sum of money C is Rs. 8000 more than B, B and C are

    invested at 10% p.a and 12.5% p.a, S.I for two years and the difference between the interest obtained after two years is Rs.5200, then what will be the value of C?
    A Rs.70000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.72000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.65000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.52000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let we assume that the value for B be (x) and C be (x + 8000) Then, we can conclude from above that =  [(x + 8000) x 2 x 1/8] – [(x) x 2 x 1/10] = 5200 (x) = 64000 hence the value for C is = 64000 + 8000 = Rs.72000
