Answer 1

Answer:

18.37 % Profit

Step-by-step explanation:

3kg tea cost = 220 * 3 = 660 rs

2 kg tea cost  = 160 * 2 = 320  rs

5 kg mix tea cost = 660 + 320 = 980  rs

1 kg mix tea cost = 980/5 = 196 rs

1 kg mix tea selling price = 232 rs

profit = 232-196 = 36

Profit % = (36/196)*100 = 18.37 %
