Explanation:

Rs. 8000 is invested at 5.5% earning yearly interest of 8000 × 5.5% = Rs. 440
Rs. 5000 is invested at 5.6% earning yearly interest of 5000 × 5.6% = Rs. 280
Rs. 7000 is invested at x% earning yearly interest of 7000 × x% = Rs. 70x

Overall, 20,000 is invested which earns 5% yearly interest = 5% of 20000 = 1000

⇒ 440 + 280 + 70x = 1000
⇒ 70x = 1000 – 720 = 280
⇒ x = 4%

∴ If she had invested her entire initial capital in bank C alone, then her annual interest income = 4% of 20000 = Rs. 800
Hence, option (a).
