    (ii) A person borrowed Rs. 500 @ 3% per annum S.I. and Rs, 600 @ \[4\frac{1}{2}%\] per annum on the agreement for 3 years. The total S.I (in Rs.) that has to be ,.., paid is. (q) 11200
    (iii) A certain amount was divided between A and B in the ratio\[4:3\]. If 8's share was Rs.4800, then the total amount (in Rs.) is
               

    A)  (i)\[\to \](r); (ii)\[\to \](p); (iii) \[\to \](q)

    B)  (i)\[\to \](p); (ii)\[\to \](q); (iii)\[\to \](r)

    C)  (i)\[\to \](q); (ii)\[\to \](p); (iii) \[\to \](r)

    D)  (i)\[\to \](r); (ii)\[\to \](q); (iii)\[\to \](p)

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    (i) Let original C.P. of the car be Rs. x. Loss% = 10% C.P.\[=\frac{S.P.\times 100}{100-Loss%}\] \[\therefore \] C.P. for Arun, \[x=\frac{S.P.\times 100}{90}\]      ?.(1) Now, S.P for Amit =Rs. 54000, Profit % = 20% \[\therefore \]  \[C.P.=\left( \frac{S.P\times 100}{100+\text{Profit }\!\!%\!\!\text{ }} \right)\] C.P. for Amit \[=\frac{54000\times 100}{100+20}=\frac{54000\times 100}{120}\] =Rs. 45000 Now, cost price of car for Amit would be the selling price of car for Arun. \[\therefore \]  S.P. for Arun = Rs.45000 From (1), we get. \[x=\frac{45000\times 100}{90}=50000\] Thus, original cost price of car =Rs. 50000. (ii) Case 1: Principal \[({{P}_{1}})\] =Rs. 500, Rate \[({{R}_{1}})=3%\]  Case 2  Principal \[({{P}_{2}})=Rs.\,600,\] Rate  \[({{R}_{2}})=4\frac{1}{2}%=\frac{9}{2}%\] Time = 3 years Case 1: S.I. \[=500\times \frac{3}{100}\times 3=Rs.\,45\] Case 2: S.I. \[=\frac{600\times 9\times 3}{2\times 100}=Rs.\,81\] Total S.I.=45+81 =Rs.126. (iii) Let amount of money A get be 4x and amount of money B get be 3x. According to question, B's share \[=Rs.4800\Rightarrow 3x=4800\] \[\Rightarrow \]  \[x=\frac{4800}{3}=1600\] \[\therefore \]As share \[=4\times 1600=6400\] \[\therefore \]Total amount \[=4800+6400=Rs.1200\]
