Solution(By Examveda Team)
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{S}}{\text{.}}{{\text{I}}_1} = 2 \times {\text{S}}{\text{.}}{{\text{I}}_2} \cr & \frac{{x \times 20 \times 21}}{{100 \times 3 \times 5}} = 2 \times \frac{{y \times 4 \times 11}}{{100 \times 4}} \cr & 28x = 22y \cr & x:y = 22:28 \cr & {\text{Ratio of second part of first part}} \cr & y:x = 28:22 = 14:11 \cr} $$Related Questions on Interest
