the rate of interest on a sum of money is 11 % p . a . for the first 3 years , 4 % p . a . for the next 4 years , and 5 % for the period beyond 7 years . if the s . i , occured on the sum for the total period of 8 years is rs . 540 / - , the sum is
"explanation : i 1 = ( p x 3 x 11 ) / 100 = p / 3 i 2 = ( p x 4 x 4 ) / 100 = 4 p / 25 i 3 = ( p x 1 x 5 ) / 100 = p / 20 p / 3 + 4 p / 25 + p / 20 = 540 27 p / 50 = 540 p = 1000 answer : option a"
divide(540, 540)
