    Plan B. Plan A offers 4% p.a. and Plan B offers 7% p.a. simple interest. If after 3 years, the total interest earned is Rs. 495, what is the value of ‘x’?

    C Rs.2800 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.2500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    x × 0.04 × 3 + x/2 × 0.07 × 3 = 495

    0.12x + 0.105x = 495

    0.225x = 495

    x = 495 / 0.225 = 2200

    So, the value of ‘x’ is Rs. 2200
