{ 75/3 = 25 } kg of apples were sold at a loss of 5%
-------------------
The { 25 } kg of apples were bought for:
{ 30*75*(1/3) = 750 }rupees
------------------------------
A loss of 5% means they were sold for:
{ .95*750 = 712.5 } rupees
-------------------------
For the overall gain to be 10%, the selling
price of all { 75 }of the apples must be:
{ 30*75*1.1 = 2475 }
------------------------
{ 2475 - 712.5 = 1762.5 } is the price
of the remaining { 2/3 }
The remaining { (2/3)*75 = 50 } kg
of apples should be sold at a rate of:
{ 1762.5 / 50 = 35.25 } rupees / kg
