Answer:2500

Explanation:

The Amount increases to 2800 after 2 years

it increases 3250 after 5 years

so , in 3 years it increased ( 3250-2800) = 450 rupees.

in 3 years it increased 450

so in 1 it increased 150

according to the problem the sum amounts to 2800 rupees

so in 2 years it increased (150*2)=

300 rupees ,

So the sum was (2800-300) =

2500 rupees
