Let 3 parts be a, b & c . a + b + c = 44000 Interest amounts are equal for given data i.e a x 2 x 6% = b x 3 x 8% = c x 6 x 6% 12%a = 24%b = 36%c i.e 12a = 24b = 36c a = 2b = 3c so c is smallest converting all 3 parts into variations of c a = 3c b = 3c/2 a + b + c = 44000 3c + 3c/2 + c = 44000 11c/2 = 44000 c =8000
