A.Rs. 4000, Rs. 2000
B.Rs. 5000, Rs. 1000
C.Rs. 3000, Rs. 3000
D.None of these

Answer 1

Answer:

A.Rs. 4000, Rs. 2000

Step-by-step explanation :

let 1st part is x and 2nd part is (6000x)

Now according to the question

(x*2*6)/100 = ((6000-x)*8*3)/100

 x*2*6 = (6000-x)8*3

        x  =  (6000-x)*2

        x+2x = 12000

            3x  = 12000

              x   =  4000

Hence, 1st part = 4000

            and 2nd part = 6000-4000 = 2000

Answer 2

Answer:X*2*6/100=(6000-X)*8*3/100

12X=144000-24X

36X=144000

X=144000/36

X=4000

6000-4000=2000

So answer 4000,2000
