      "S" has Rs. 'p' with him. He invested 20% of the sum at

      15% p.a. simple interest for 4 years in an FD and the rest at 20% p.a. simple interest for 3 years in SIP. If the total amount received by him is Rs. 6800, then find the sum invested at 20% p.a. simple interest.
      A Rs.3400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.3450 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.2400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.1400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, {(0.20p Γ— 15 Γ— 4)/100} + 0.20p + 0.80p + {(0.80p Γ— 20 Γ—3)/100} = 6800 Or, 0.6p + p = 6800 Or, p = 6800/1.6 = Rs. 4250 Therefore, sum invested at 20% p.a. simple interest = 0.8p = Rs.3400
