S.P. of 1 kg of mixture = Rs. 9.24, Gain 10%. C.P. of 1 kg of mixture = Rs. 100 x 9.24 = Rs. 8.40 110 By the rule of allilation, we have: C.P. of 1 kg sugar of 1st kind Cost of 1 kg sugar of 2nd kind Rs. 9 Mean Price
Rs. 8.40 Rs. 7 1.40 0.60 Ratio of quantities of 1st and 2nd kind = 14 : 6 = 7 : 3. Let x kg of sugar of 1st be mixed with 27 kg of 2nd kind. Then, 7 : 3 = x : 27 x = 7 x 27 = 63 kg. 3
