    Ram had Rs. 2 lakh, part of which he lent at 15% per annum and rest at 12% per annum. Yearly interest accured was Rs. 27600. How much did he lent at 15%?

    A) Rs. 120000                   

    B) Rs. 100000

    C) Rs. 80000         

    D) Rs. 60000

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let first part be Rs. x, then second part is \[Rs.(200000-x)\] By given condition, \[\frac{x\times 1\times 15}{15}+\frac{(200000-x)\times 1\times 12}{100}=27600\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[15x-12x+2400000=2760000\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[3x=2760000-2400000\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[3x=360000\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=120000\] Required amount \[=Rs.120000\] \[\therefore \] Required amount he lent at\[15%=200000-x\]             \[=200000-120000\]             \[=80000\]
