    A Rs.42,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.20,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.52,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.40,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ;
    x = 100a
    40a and 60a
    4 × 7% × 40a + 4 × 9% × 60a = 13120
    32.8a = 13120
    a = 400
    Hence, x = 40,000
