A sum of Rs. 2600 is lent out into two parts, one at 9% and another at 7% if the total annual income is Rs. 206, find the money lent at 7%.

Question

Accepted Answer

Money lent at 9% = x Money lent at 7% = (2600 – x) ⇒ 9x/100 + (2600 – x) X 7 /100 = 206 ⇒ 9x + 18200 – 7x = 20600 ⇒ 2x = 2400 ⇒ x = 1200 Money lent at 7% = 2600-1200 = 1400
