Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Let sum lent at 6% rate of interest $ =x $ $ SI=19000-16800=2200 $

$ \therefore $ $ \frac{x\times 6\times 2}{100}+\frac{(16800-x)\times 8\times 2}{100}=2200 $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ 12x+(16800-x)\times 16=2200000 $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ 4x=16800\times 16-220000=268800-220000 $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ 4x=48800 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ x=12200 $
