Explanation:

S.P of Rs. 5000 stock = Rs.(156100*5000)Rs.156100*5000= Rs. 7800. 

 

Income from this stock = Rs.(12100*5000)Rs.12100*5000 = Rs. 600.  

 

Let investment in 8 % stock be x and that in 9 % stock = (7800 - x).

 

Therefore,  

 

(x*890)+(7800−x)*9108=[600+70]x*890+7800-x*9108=600+70  

 

4x45+7800−x12=670⇔x=36004x45+7800-x12=670⇔x=3600 

 

Therefore,  Money invested in 8 % stock at 90 = Rs. 3600.

 

Money invested in 9 % at 108 = Rs. (7800-3600) = Rs. 4200.
