    D Rs.22500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the amount borrowed by Ankita from Suman be Rs. ‘x’. So, the amount borrowed by Ankita from Arjun = Rs. (2x/3)

    Money to be repaid to Suman = 21000+(21000×0.11×2) = Rs.25520 Money to be repaid to Arjun:

    14000+14000×0.36 = Rs.19040 Total amount to be repaid by Ankita = 25520+19040 = Rs.44560
