Answer 2

Answer:

the mixture bs sold at 20.18/KG to gain 25% profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1st 5kg of wheat - 18 x 5 = 90

Cost of 2nd 8kg of wheat - 8 x 15 = 120

Total cost of 13kg of wheat - 210

Cost of /Kg Wheat - 210/13 - 16.15

Selling at 25% profit. So Selling Price /KG = 210/13 + 0.25x210/13

                                                                     =  16.15 + 4.03 = 20.18

So, the mixture bs sold at 20.18/KG to gain 25% profit.
