Answer:
- $14,747 at 9%
- $12,129 at 5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount invested at 9%. Then the difference in interest amounts is ...
(9%)x -(5%)(26876 -x) = 720.78 . . . . . assuming a 1-year investment
0.14x -1343.80 = 720.78 . . . . . . . . . simplify
0.14x = 2064.58 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 1343.80
x = 14,747 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.14
$14,747 is invested at 9%; $12,129 is invested at 5%.
To find the lowest common denominator between the fractions, what you need to do is simply write out the multiples of both 3 and 5 and find what multiple is common between both:
3,6,9,12,15
5,10,15
The multiple that is common and is the lowest in both would be 15.
The solution thus is B.15, it is the LCD for the fractions of 2/3 and 4/5.
