The correct Answer is:
D

Let the sum invested at 9 % be ₹x and that invested at 11% be ₹ (100000-x).
` Rightarrow ((x xx 9 xx 1)/100) + ( ((100000 -x)xx11xx1)/100)`
` - ( 100000 xx 39/4 xx 1/100)`
` Rightarrow ( 9x + 1100000 -11x)/100 = 39000/4 = 9750`
` Rightarrow 2x = ( 1100000 - 975000) = 125000 Rightarrow x= 62500`
SUm invesred at 9% = ₹ 62500.
Sum invested at 11% = ₹ ( 100000 - 62500) = ₹ 37500)
Alternate solution :
Total percentage ioncrease is ` 9"" 3/4` in a year.
Percentage increase in both the schemes
9%( ` I ^("st") and II^("nd") ` scheme) + 2 % (second scheme)
`Rightarrow3/4 % " of " 10000 = 2% ( "second scheme") `
` Rightarrow " second scheme " = 3/8 % " of " 100000 = 37500`
Amount invested = ( 62500, 37500)
