She invested part of the remainder in Dreyfus New Leaders Fund with an annual yield of 16% and the rest in Templeton Growth Fund With an annual yield of 25% . If she made $6060 on these investments in one year, then how much did she invest in each fund. Show a complete solution to each problem.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Natasha pocketed 50000 on her real estate deal-then gave 20000 to charity, leaving her with 30000. Let n be the amount invested at 25%. Then the amount invested at 16% would be 30000-n. So:
.25n+.16(30000-n)=6060
.09n=1260
n=14000
14000 was invested at 25%, with the remaining 16000 invested at 16%. ☺☺☺☺
