Let's assume, the rate of interest of $8000 is x%,
then the rate of interest of $17000 is (x+0.3x) =1.3x%
Interest earned by $8000,

Interest earned by $17,000,

According to the question,





∴ Rate of interest of $8000 is 1.96% and rate of interest of $17000 is (1.3×1.96) =2.55%
Set up a ratio and solve for the missing value:
