बेरीज

उत्तर

Let the sum be ₹ P

Interest for 2.5 years at 12% per annum

= `(P xx 12 xx 2.5)/100 = 3/10`P

Interest for 4.5 years at 8% per annum

= `(P xx 8/100 xx 4.5)/100 = 9/25`P

According to question,

`3/10`P = `9/25`P – 300

⇒ `(9/25 - 3/10)`P = 300

⇒ `((36 - 30))/100`P = 300

⇒ `6/100`P = 300

⇒ P = `(300 xx 100)/6` = 5000
