Previous Year Question (PYQs)



Sitaram, a money lender lent a part of Rs. $200000$ to Shyam at simple interest $6%$ p.a. and the remaining to Sushil at $10%$ p.a. at simple interest.
Sitaram earned an annual interest income of Rs. $18000$.

In what ratio did Sitaram lent the money at $6%$ p.a. and $10%$ p.a. respectively?





Solution

Let amount lent at $6%$ be $x$.

Then amount lent at $10%$

$=200000-x$

Total interest:

$0.06x+0.10(200000-x)=18000$

$0.06x+20000-0.10x=18000$

$20000-0.04x=18000$

$0.04x=2000$

$x=50000$

So,

Amount at $6%$ = $50000$
Amount at $10%$ = $150000$

Ratio:

$50000:150000$

$=1:3$
