Let the price of the mixed variety be Rs. x per kg. By rule of alligation, we have: Cost of 1 kg of Type 1 rice Cost of 1 kg of Type 2 rice Rs. 15 Mean Price
Rs. x Rs. 20 (20 - x) (x - 15) (20 - x) = 2 (x - 15) 3 60 - 3x = 2x - 30 5x = 90 x = 18.
Rs. x Rs. 20 (20 - x) (x - 15) (20 - x) = 2 (x - 15) 3 60 - 3x = 2x - 30 5x = 90 x = 18.
