Q:

A man borrowed Rs 24000 from two money lenders. For one loan, he paid 15% per annum and for the other 18% per annum. At the end of one year, he paid Rs 4050. How much did he borrow at each rate ?

A) Rs.16000 B) Rs.12000
C) Rs.15000 D) Rs.13000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs.15000

Explanation:

Let the sum at 15% be Rs x and that at 18% be Rs (24000 - x).

{(x * 15 * 1)/100 } + { [(24000 – x) * 18 * 1]/100 } = 4050

or 15 x + 432000 - 18x = 405000 or x = 9000.

Money borrowed at 15% = Rs 9000 .

Money borrowed at 18% = Rs 15000.
