  • Options
  • A. Rs. 5000
  • B. Rs. 6200
  • C. Rs. 8100
  • D. R. 7600

  • Correct Answer
  • Rs. 5000 

    Explanation

    Let the amount invested by saketh = RS. p

    Now, that of sandeep = 20,000 x 6

    saketh = 12 x p

    Ratio of their earnings = 120000 : 12p = 6000 : (9000 - 6000)

    =>  120000 12 p   =   6000 3000   = >   p =   Rs .   5000

    Hence, the amount investe by saketh  = Rs. p  = Rs. 5000.
