soln (Question: 163830.0 )

detail soln v krye sir

Question:

A merchant purchased two qualities of pulses at the rate of  \(\unicode{x20B9} \)200 per quintal and \(\unicode{x20B9} \)260 per quintal. In 52 quintals of the second quality, how much pulse of the first quality should be mixed so that by selling the resulting mixture at \(\unicode{x20B9} \)300 per quintal. He gains a profit of 25%?

Options:
A) 100 quintals
B) 104 quintals
C) 26 quintals 
D) 130 quintals
Solution:

Ans: (c) By selling at 300 if we need to get a profit of 25% it means that the cost price would be 300/1.25 = 240.


Ratio of mixing required to get an average of

\(\unicode{x20B9} \)240 per quintal = 1:2

Thus, in 52 quintals of the second we need to mix 26 quintals of the first.
