Solution
Let A's initial investment be x Rs.
Thus total sum invested by A in one year =x×4+(x+6000)×8 Rs =12x+48000 Rs
As per the given condition,
⇒12x+4800025000×12=24002500
⇒12x+4800025000×12=2425
⇒300x+48000×25=24×25000×12
⇒300x=6000000
⇒x=20000
Total amount invested by A =20000×4+26000×8=2,88,000 Rs.
