Question

Rs. 9800 are invested partly in 9 % stock at 75 and  10% stock at 80 to have equal amount of incomes. The investment in 9% stock is :


Options:
A .  Rs. 4800
B .  Rs. 5000
C .  Rs. 5400
D .  Rs. 5600
Answer: Option B

Let the investment in 9 % stock be Rs. `x`

Then investment in 10 % stock = Rs. `(9800 - x)`

`9/76 xx x = 10/80 xx (9800 - x)`

`hArr   (3x)/(25) = (9800 - x)/(8)`

`hArr    24x = 9800 xx 25 - 25x`

`hArr   49x = 9800 xx 25`

`hArr   x = 5000`
