Solution

₹ 10,000

Explanation:

Interest on Drawings = `"Total Drawings" xx "Rate"/100 xx 6/12`

4,800 = `"Total Drawings" xx 8/100 xx 6/12`

Total Drawings = `(4,800 xx 100 xx 12)/(8 xx 6)`

= `(57,60,000)/48`

= 1,20,000

The amount of monthly drawings is determined by dividing the total drawings by the number of months in a year.

Monthly Drawings = `"Total Drawings"/12`

= `(1,20,000)/12`

= 10,000
