C) Rs. 30,000 D) Rs. 40,000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 30,000

Explanation:

Let first part is 'K' and second part is 'L'
then K + L = 50000---------eq1
Total profit = profit on x + profit on y
7000 = (K x 10 x 1)/100 + (L x 20 x 1)/100
70000 = K + 2L-----------------------------------eq2
70000 = 50000 + L
so L = 20000 then K = 50000 - 20000 = 30000
first part on 10% is = Rs.30000
