Correct Answer: 24,380


Solution : For the first investment,
Principal = INR 4,400
Rate = 10%
Time = 12 years
Simple interest = $\frac{\text{Principal × Rate × Time}}{100}$ = $\frac{4400 \times 10 \times 12}{100}$ = INR 5,280
Amount received = 4400 + 5280 = INR 9680
For the second investment,
Principal = INR 7,500
Rate = 8%
Time = 12 years
Simple interest = $\frac{7500 \times 8 \times 12}{100}$ = INR 7,200
Amount received = 7500 + 7200 = INR 14,700
The total amount received from the two investments = 9680 + 14700 = INR 24,380
Hence, the correct answer is 24,380.
