$ 50,000 was the amount received.
20000 went to charity
So she invested $30,000
Let her invest x in New Leader - 16%
she will invest 30,000-x in Templeton 25%
..
Total she earned =
$9090
.
0.16x+0.25(30,000-x)=6060
0.16x+7500-0.25x=6060
-0.09x=-1440
x= -1440 / -0.09
x= $ 16,000 with Dreyfus New leaders
$14,000 with Templeton
