Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

A + B = 9000
4/11 of A's amount = 3/5 of B's ​​amount
411A=35B20A=33BA=3320B3320B+B=90003320B+2020B=90005320B=9000B=9000×2053=18000053A=3320×18000053=Rs,5603.8\frac{4}{11}A = \frac{3}{5}B\\ 20A = 33B\\ A = \frac{33}{20}B\\ \frac{33}{20}B + B = 9000\\ \frac{33}{20}B + \frac{20}{20}B = 9000\\ \frac{53}{20}B = 9000\\ B = \frac{9000 \times 20}{53} = \frac{180000}{53}\\ A = \frac{33}{20} \times \frac{180000}{53} = Rs,5603.8
