Let x = amount at 6%, in pesos.
Then the amount at 5% is the rest (2500-x) pesos.
The interest from the 6% amount is 0.06*x pesos.
The interest from the 5% amount is 0.05*(2500-x) pesos.
Your equation is
interest + interest = total interest, or
0.63*x + 0.05*(2500-x) = 141 pesos.
From the equation, express x and calculate the answer
x = = 1600.
Answer. The amount at 6% is $1600; the rest $2500-$1600 = $900 is the amount at 5%.
Check. 0.06*1600 + 0.05*900 = 141 pesos. ! Correct !
