cost price for 80kg=80*27=2160
cost price for 120kg=3840
total cost price=2160+3840=6000
selling price=((100+gain%)/100)*c.p
sp=(116/100)*6000
sp=116*60
sp=6960
no of KGS=200
rate for one kg=total sp/200
one kg rate=6960/200
one kg rate=34.8

Answer:

Rate of 1 Kg of rice = Rs. 34.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price for 80 kg of rice = 80 × 27

                                              = Rs. 2160

Cost price for 120 kg of rice = Rs. 3840

Total cost price of rice = 2160 + 3840

                                      = Rs. 6000

Selling price of rice =((100 + gain%)/100) × C.P.

Selling Price = (116/100) × 6000

Selling Price = 116 × 60

Selling Price of rice = Rs. 6960

No. of Kg's of rice bought = 200 Kg

Rate of 1 Kg of rice = S.P./200

Rate of 1 Kg of rice = 6960/200

So, Rate of 1 Kg of rice = Rs. 34.8
