Q:

Rs. 5887 is divided between Shyam and Ram, such that Shyam's share at the end of 9 years is equal to Ram's share at the end of 11 years, compounded annually at the rate of 5%. Find the share of Shyam.

A) 3567 B) 3452
C) 3087 D) 3544
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3087

Explanation:

Shyam's share * (1+0.05)9 = Ram's share * (1 + 0.05)11

Shyam's share / Ram's share = (1 + 0.05)11 / (1+ 0.05)9 = (1+ 0.05)2 = 441/400

Therefore Shyam's share = (441/841) * 5887 = 3087

A) 10 B) 13
C) 15 D) 18
