Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A. 6600

Explanation

Remainder = 1 − 1/3 − 1/4 = 5/12. Overall rate = (1/3)(7) + (1/4)(8) + (5/12)(10) = 7/3 + 2 + 25/6 = 51/6 = 8.5%. Capital = 561 / 0.085 = ₹6600.शेष भाग = 1 − 1/3 − 1/4 = 5/12। कुल दर = (1/3)(7) + (1/4)(8) + (5/12)(10) = 7/3 + 2 + 25/6 = 51/6 = 8.5%। पूँजी = 561 / 0.085 = ₹6600।
