A Woman Invested 5 Times As Much At 6% As She Did At 12%. The Total Amount Of Interest She Earns In 1 Year From Both Accounts Is $420. How Much Did She Invest At Each Rate?


Answer:
Let x be the amount invested at the 12% rate.
  (5x)6% + (x)12% = $420
  (x)(30% + 12%) = $420
  x = $420/42% = $420/.42 = $1000
  5x = $5000

The woman invested $5000 at 6% and $1000 at 12%.

Check
6% of $5000 + 12% of $1000 = $300 + $120 = $420
